Hi Rob,
Yes when I enter perl -e "print $ENV{USERNAME}" at command prompt it
show windows logon name.
But when I try to print out at web browser, it show null.
My perl cgi program is a web application, the script is run through a
web browser. So can I retrieve the windows user name thru a perl cgi
web script?
Thanks
