Reading windows user id and computer name

I am using servlet and jsp's in my web application. I want to read clients computer name and their windows userId in jsp. How I can do this?
Thanks,
Reddy

You can use an Applet to do this but you'll need to sign the applet and the user will need to have jre1.3 or greater installed (see Java Plugin).

MDT 2012 Windows 7 Deployment Stops At User Account and Computer Name Setup Page

I was given a sysprepped custom Windows 7 WIM image that was set up by a third party that didn't use MDT to create the WIM.
I created a task sequence to deploy it, but it never finishes. After the OS installs and it reboots, it comes up to the white setup page asking for a user name and computer name that looks like this image:
Is there a setting in MDT that can change that behavior?

Are you joining the computer to a domain?
It sounds like MDT did not create the unattend.xml file itself (or is there an unattend file already in the image itself?)
MDT needs to be able to autologin with the local admin account
From MDT in your task sequence - OS info - Edit unattend.xml you can check if your unattended file is correct.
Check what's in there for:
- computer name in 4 Specialize area - Windows-Shell-Setup_neutral (it should be empty if you want MDT to handle it).
- Also i think you need to have in the Specialize section, under Microsoft-Windows-Deployment_neutral - Run Synchronous an EnableAdmin insert
This will enable the local admin account
- Also check in phase 7 oobe System in Shell-Setup_neutral
There should be an autologon with a count of 999
Check if you have any Local Accounts there.
Finally read this:
When I am joining clients to a domain, can I avoid creating a local user
account on the computer?
Yes. To do this, create an image unattend file that adds a domain account to the Administrators group. In addition, you must delete the <LocalAccounts> section if it is present in your
unattend file (simply commenting it out will not work). An example file is below. Note that if domain join fails, Windows Deployment Services will not use the unattend file so you will be able to create a local account. For more information about creating
unattend files, see Automating Setup.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend" xmlns:ms="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State">

I tried opening the unattend.xml from the MDT workbench, but it errors out saying it cannot be done because the captured image is x86.

I bought a new laptop with Windows 7. My computer name in Windows has changed, and now, my Ipad can't find Itunes

Ok, if reinstalling iTunes as suggested above does not resolve the issue of iTunes recognising the iPad then try this -
Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
Thirdly, make sure your lead /connections are no faulty.
Fourthly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
As for making your new laptop your 'home computer' follow these instructions -
1. Without connecting your iPad to your computer -
A) Install iTunes / make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed.
B) Go to the Store tab and click on "Authorise This Computer".
C) Go to Edit, click on Preferences [iTunes and Preferences on Macs] and click on Devices. Put a check mark in the box next to "Prevent iPods/iPhones/iPads from syncing automatically". Click OK and close iTunes.
2. Connect your iPad to your computer -
A) Start iTunes (it will not start automatically because of the action at 1(C) above).
B) Right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select "Transfer purchases".
C) When the transfer has completed, right click on your iPad again and select "Backup".
D) When the backup has completed, left click on your iPad, click on the Apps tab, and put a check mark in the box next to "Sync Apps", and then click on "Apply" (bottom right).
E) Unless you want to always do a manual sync (as I do), go back to Edit, Preferences [iTunes and Preferences on Macs] and uncheck the box next to "Prevent your iPod.....".
F) Finally, on your iPad, check that everything is syncing properly. If not, go back to iTunes and check all settings.
NB You should not lose any apps. However, any 'purchased' missing apps can be downloaded again FOC. As with updates, this must be done with the Apple ID under which they were originally 'purchased'.

Getting the user name and computer name

I've been trying to find out how to do this, but can't seem to get it.
I have an AIR application that needs to get the user's login name, and computer name for verification. I can't find anywhere to do this. Is AIR able to get this information? Is there work arounds if there isn't?
It won't ever be a web app, just an AIR app.

What I did in Air 2 to accomplish that is the following:
               public function getHostName():void {
                    if(NativeProcess.isSupported) {
                         var OS:String = Capabilities.os.toLocaleLowerCase();
                         var file:File;
                         if (OS.indexOf('win') > -1) {
                              //Executable in windows
                              file = new File('C:\\Windows\\System32\\hostname.exe');
                         } else if (OS.indexOf('mac') > -1 ) {
                              //Executable in mac
                         } else if (OS.indexOf('linux')) {
                              //Executable in linux
                         var nativeProcessStartupInfo:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
                         nativeProcessStartupInfo.executable = file;
                         var process:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
                              process.addEventListener(NativeProcessExitEvent.EXIT, onExitError);
                              process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_OUTPUT_DATA, onOutput);
                              process.start(nativeProcessStartupInfo);
                              process.closeInput();
               import utls.StringHelper;
               public function onOutput(event:ProgressEvent):void {
                    var strHelper:StringHelper = new StringHelper();
                    var output:String = event.target.standardOutput.readUTFBytes(event.target.standardOutput.bytesAvailable);
                         output = strHelper.trimBack(output, "\n");
                         output = strHelper.trimBack(output, "\r");
                    trace('"'+output+'"');
The package that I used is from the manual:
package utls
     public class StringHelper
          public function StringHelper()
          public function replace(str:String, oldSubStr:String, newSubStr:String):String {
               return str.split(oldSubStr).join(newSubStr);
          public function trim(str:String, char:String):String {
               return trimBack(trimFront(str, char), char);
          public function trimFront(str:String, char:String):String {
               char = stringToCharacter(char);
               if (str.charAt(0) == char) {
                    str = trimFront(str.substring(1), char);
               return str;
          public function trimBack(str:String, char:String):String {
               char = stringToCharacter(char);
               if (str.charAt(str.length - 1) == char) {
                    str = trimBack(str.substring(0, str.length - 1), char);
               return str;
          public function stringToCharacter(str:String):String {
               if (str.length == 1) {
                    return str;
               return str.slice(0, 1);
And sorry for the miss topic I just realized that it is on flex topic, but I post it either way it may be useful for anyone

If I do a repair the windows small business server 2011 standard repair console, will I loose the user's and computer's that are currently setup on the server ?

will I loose the user's and computer's that are currently setup on the server?

Hi,
Based on your description, I understand you want to repair SBS 2011 console (please refer to
the TechNet article:
Repair the Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard Console). However, worry about losing users and groups that be created by Windows SBS Console. As far as I know, those will not lose.
Since, when you create users and groups via SBS console, those are added to Activity Directory.
The SBS console is a GUI component, which makes it easy to configure and manage your Windows SBS 2011 Standard network. When you repair the SBS console, this component will be affected.
In view of your concerns, please back up before operation. It will help us to avoid some unexpected
issue.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,

Error connecting, tap to retry, it sees my WiFi and computer name but can't connect

Hi all, I am trying to get Edge Inspect to work on my Windows 7 PC (it did work for me a few times when I had it installed as Shadow when it initally came out)
I have read through various forum posts. I am also running Mcafee Virusscan/Firewall.
In Google Chrome I have the extension installed at the little "In" symbol top right, when I click it it says Adobe Edge Inspect "On", please start the Adobe Edge Inspect Application.
I open up the lastest version of Edge Inspect (v1.0.393) on either my iPhone or iPad, it shows the name of my WiFi router and shows the name of the computer that is running Google Chrome, it looks like it is searching for a connection (shows spinner) and then it says "Error connecting, tap to retry".
I have opened up port 7682 in my Mcafee Firewall
I have shutdown all open programs
I have tried manually entering in the computer IP address via manual connect
I have updated chrome extension and ios apps to latest version
I have tried reinstalling chrome extension
I have tried at Windows Command prompt "netstat -ano" it doesnt show port 7682 being used, until I open up Google Chrome, then it shows MYCOMPUTER:7682 SYN_SENT, which I checked the PID against and yes it is Google Chrome using 7682
Any help would be great

Hi again Mark, still no luck here.
I also have a Mac in my network so I thought I'd try installing to that to see what would happen, I just installed Adobe Edge Inspect extension onto Google Chrome on that machine and restarted the iOS apps on both iPad and iPhone and they actually didnt see the Mac machine at all, still just shows the PC computer.
Also did I mention on my iPad I can still see the last time the connection actually worked (when it was called Adobe shadow, on my iPad underneath MYCOMPUTERNAME Error Connecting, tap to retry it has MYCOMPUTERNAME Last Used 24/07/12 8:59PM). Wouldnt have anything to do with a conflict with the old Adobe Shadow or anything would it, I'm pretty sure Adobe Shadow got uninstalled by default anyway, just a thought.
So I'm not sure if it can be a problem with the Router because nothing has changed with the router since the last time it successfully worked when it was Shadow? I did add the Mac machine to the network since this time, but that machine hasnt been on when I have been doing any of this testing anyway.
Also in the Edge Inspect in the Chrome browser I do not see any deviced listed, but back on the iOS App I do see the Wifi network and Computer name as discussed, so does this mean its an inbound connection issue or?
Also sent you router settings via private message etc.

Accessing windows user id and password

Password: doubt it (and if you could, I'd buy a new system).
It also runs against the grain of Java, which is that it is platform-independant.

"Use my Microsoft Windows user ID and password" is grayed out

Hello Experts,
I've disabled "SOX Auditing" option in Server Manager in BPC 5.1 SP03, but "Use my Microsoft Windows user ID and password" is still grayed out. The only option I unlocked is saving password.
How do I enable Windows Authentication in BPC?
Thanks in advance,
Akim

Enabling/Disabling SOX Compliance does not take effect until the 2nd time you go through the Connection Wizard.
Your problem could also be within Internet Explorer.
Go to:
1. Internet Explorer>Tools>Internet Options>Security Tab
2. Click on Local Intranet zone>Custom Level
3. Scroll down to User Authentication>Logon. Ensure that Automatic Logon with Current UN and PW is checked.
4. Do the same for the Internet zone.
Try on multiple machines.
Also on the client machine, look at the value for BASICAUTHENTICATION in:
hkeycurrentuser>software>vb and vba program settings>outlooksoft 5>latest

Changing 'main' user and computer name

Hi everybody!
I got an older iBook from my sis. I'm trying to remove her stuff and clean it up a bit for my use. Is there a way to change the main user account so the computer isn't in her name anymore? I tried creating a new admin account, but I can't delete the first account. Also I can't change the computer name on the main log in screen. Any suggestions?
I was thinking about bringing it in to a store. I'm sure they can do it quick fast in a hurry.
cheers.

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Matt Clifton has given his suggestions here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1076960
You need to log out and log back in with the new account in order to delete the old one.
(It really isn't necessary to delete the other account unless you need the hard drive space. You can simply choose to have it automatically log in to your account and not the old one.)
To change the computer's name go to System Preferences > Sharing and change the computer's name there.

How to read employee user's Org unit name,Org unit add and user position

Hi ,
Is there any Function module or a class-method to read a user assinged Orgunit name ,Org unit address and the user position at that org unit.
i have a given out a search on sdn but could not get the answer.
Thanks for your time
Seema

Eswar,
Thanks for your fast reply.
I found this table before.But i do not have idea of passing what paramters to get my specific org and position of an employee data from this table.
Let say i know my BP number for employee and Username of him.
i could find out his Obj id using EMP user name.
When i look into table HRP1001 using above Obj id, i could see there are 3 entries exist in table , among one of them is talking about position as
Sclas = S and SOBID = 50020832.
So how would i know by having this number , is it dealing with position and what kind of position it is,,,whether a manager or something else?
Hope you got me.

Need to the domain name and computer name in offline mode

Hi,
I can not able to login to the windows system, the password i am using is correct. But im getting error "the login method using is incorrect, please contact network admin". I forgot the domain name i set to login to the system. Now Currently i
dont have the recovery/windows7 disks. I have Unix in my machine as well. so i have mounted the windows7 parition in linux, and trying to find out the computer\domain name. so please suggest which file i need to search to get the details.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
If you want to know more information about domain name, please take a look at the following article.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731265(v=ws.10).aspx
Based on my research, the computer name and domain name are stored in the registry key.
We could find computer name in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ComputerName.
And we can find domain name in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Domain.
Have you ever joined a domain?
If yes, please contact the network admin as mentioned.
And we can type Domain name\Username and then password to login.
If you haven’t, we could try to type Computer name\username(.\username) and then the password to login the computer.

Parse Security Logs for User Account logon Computer Name

Greetings,
I was recently tasked with creating a list of user accounts and the computer in which they logged onto. Unfortunately, we do not have time to use the logon script method. I believe we can achieve this goal using software similar to LANSweeper
however not all computers will be turned on at a given time and I believe this application gathers it's information from the client PC. One possible solution I see is parsing the data from our domain controllers Security Logs / Successful Logons however
this is proving to be a challenge. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I was recently tasked with creating a list of user accounts and the computer in which they logged onto.
I believe we can achieve this goal using software.
There is no built-in tool to complete this task.
However, we can configure event log trigger to send email when specific logon events are generated.
Here are some related articles below for you:

Why does the local network and computer name keep changing?

After upgrading to Yosemit the local network name and computername on my iMAC keep changes link:
Mycomputer-1
Mycomputer-2
Mycomputer-3
Why?
I have tried to change it back in sharing and network locations.
Is this also the reason the my iPhone cannot find my iPhone often cannot find my iMac when I will sync it? Then I have to restart the iPhone and iTunes on the computer. This happens very very often.
Maybe it also linked to these errors which the log is full of - many every minute:

I think the is some bug/clash between bonjour and other network protocols. That is only a guess.

After resetting the computer name and local host name to the correct name without the number I also shotdown my iMac, my AppleTV, my iPhone, my iPad and then rebooted my Airport/Time capsule it seemed to work at least for several days. But yesterday I discovered that my Apple TV now also has changed name to Apple TV (2).
I logged into iCloud.com to see my devices and here it was really wired. My Apple TV was called Apple TV (2) and my iMac also had (2) after the name. Then I checked it on the iMac but here it was correct! Why can it have one name on the iCloud and another on the computer.
I restarted both the iMac, Apple TV and Airport Time capsule then everything was correct also on iCloud.com.
But today the iMac was called the name (2) again on the iMac. And now the local host name also had -2 after the name. It has not always been both names that has changed. That is really wired. And today Wifi was not working on the iMac after wake from sleep. I changed the name back and rebooted again also the Airport Time capsule. Now it is working again.
The log is still full of this messages:

The name is not the only problem. Often itunes will not find my iPhone and iPad. Then i need to close iTunes and restart the iPhone and iPad then it works for some time.
And the iPhone and AppleTV will not always wake the iMac from sleep. I am wondering if the is linked to the changing of name.
I have seen by googling that it can be related to a sleep proxy problem so it seems like that here is two devices on the net with the same name that is why name is changing, but to know this do not help me to solve the problem. I have also seen all the suggestion to turn almost every services off on the computer, but again I it is not a solution and I have the iMac and devises to use the functionality not to shot everything down. So I do not really understand people saying turn off itunes, turn off blueboth, and turn off this and that.
Apple must soon come with a real solution. We are really many people have these problem since we upgraded to Yosemite and iOS 8.
I have also listed some of the iTunes errors from the log below:

Time Machine and computer name change

I just recently reinstalled the operator system after a computer crash when i did so changed the computer name and now when i go into time machine to restore the settings it only shows up as one sparse disc image.
i have found that when i can mount it manually but the files are not usable and when i mount it with time machine the history does not appear.

Go to System Preferences - Sharing and change the computer name there. You can also, optionally, change the name of your hard drive to further clarify the origin of your backups. Click once on the "Macintosh HD" on your desktop, then click its name to allow you to edit it.
