I assume that the intranet being that everyone is running on the same network, with a central Authentication Server... If so, just allow the directory and files be authenticated against that with the permissions. Don't bother with doing it in code, its too much work let the server's OS take care of what it is designed to do.
-----Original Message----- From: Paul Bowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 4 March 2002 10:16 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: NT authentication One attempt I made was to use an ActiveX control on a 'splash' page. The control had a call to a Windows API function to get the user's NT username. The username was then submitted to a validation page. The only problem with this was that the control required the user's browser security settings to be set to medium-low to stop warning alerts from appearing. I'd prefer an alternative approach. ______________________________________________________________________ Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation � $99/Month � Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
