How to determine who is running my C# code

jpshaver

My C#.NET application just needs to know who is running it. (That is, who has logged in to the w2k domain through the PC system on which my C# applicatoin is running.) I've seen a lot of articles on how to perform exotic work utilizing Active Directory. Can anyone offer a hint about how to do this simple thing? BIG THANK YOU to anyone who can offer a solution!!!

Dim ADGroups As Object Dim ADGroup As Object Dim ADEntry As New DirectoryEntry("WinNT://domainname/username") ADGroups = ADEntry.Invoke("Groups") For Each ADGroup In ADGroups Console.WriteLine(ADGroup.Name) Next

You can also use "System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name".

You can get username using this code: string currentUser = Environment.UserName; string machineName = Environment.MachineName;
