Get current logged in Windows user name

Hi
Is it possible to retrieve the current logged in Windows user name into a text field automatically?
Thank you in advance for the help.

Hi,
This is a security issue and you will need a javascript file in the Acrobat folder. This will contain a trusted function allowing access to the login name.
Here is a thread that looked at this:

However read to the end, because if you are Reader Enabling the form (at least through Acrobat) then you may run into problems.
Good luck,

Unable to get Windows User Name using Oracle Forms 6i, Jinitiator 1.3.1.17

Hi,
Requirement: Get Windows User Name using Oracle Web Forms 6i.
Tools Using: Windows NT, Oracle web forms 6i, Oracle 10g DB.
Description: I am using GetClientInfo JBean from otn.oracle.com, which gets windows user name, IP address and machine name. The demo I got from oracle web site uses Jinitiator version 1.1.7.18. While we are using the latest version Jinitiator 1.3.1.17. Due to this reason, I am unable to use Javakey which comes with older version but doesn't come with newer version, that's why I can't create the new JavaBean Java identity (PJC).
Please advise what to do. All environment variables are set everything is done, this is the only thing bothering me.
I went through the article 202768.1 from metalink, but on step 5, it gives an error keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Input not an X.509 Certificate.
Also, please let me know if there is any other workaround for this requirement.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Mo

Hi,
Thanks for your kind reply. Actually there was a problem in creating a certificate, now it is okay with the same method. Certificate got imported on client and everything is ready.
Now, the problem is when I try to set Bean Area Implementation Class property with oracle.forms.demos.GetClientInfo, it gives an error FRM-13008 Cannot find JavaBean with name 'oracle.forms.demos.GetClientInfo'.
I went through the articles 1072329.6, 196824.1, and set ClassPath and Path variables with proper values. Also, I have copied jar file and signature file in forms60/java folder. I don't see any problems. Please let me know what I am doing wrong. My limitation is that I have to do all this in forms6i.
I searched forums on metalink and found out that someone installed Patch 15, and everything went okay for him. Do you think I should install Patch 15? if YES, how will I do it, I mean should I first uninstall my forms and then install patch15 or install the patch on my forms?
Thanks so much for your help.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Mo

To know windows user name and machine name

Is it possible to automatically populating windows user name and machine name in form field?
If so what should I do?

Hi,
You can, but it is considered a security risk by Adobe. Therefore you need to execute the script in a "trusted function". This is script in a JavaScript file that is stored in a set folder on the user's computer. This can make it difficult to maintain, as all users will need this .js file.
Also if you Reader Enable the form through Accrobat, then the script will fail.
See a thread here with examples: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2189021#2189021.

Two windows user names, one library

Does anyone have any idea how to combat this issue? My wife and I both have seperate user names on our computer. Therefore we each have seperate iTunes library files. I have managed to get our shared music library in the "Public" folder so that we do not have duplicate songs on the computer. However, the problem arises with the iTunes library files. When I use iTunes it accesses my library file and when she uses iTunes it accesses her library. That means that if I add songs to my library, the song files will be stored in our shared "public" folder, but her library file will not know about them (they are part of MY library) and therefore she will not see that we have them available. Is there any way to get iTunes to access the public iTunes library file so that we can avoid this situation? Thanks.

You and the Mrs. would have to connect your iTunes Libraries to the same .itl file.
Have a look at this article in the Apple Knowledge Base for details on how to do so.
Not that this will mean you have identical Libraries: identical contents, identical playlists, identical ratings, identical comments, etc.

Windows user name question -- can I change it?

My daughter opened my laptop and initialized it with her name thinking it was her Thinkpad that was delivered (we ordered at same time from different places). So, I was able to change the account name on the welcome screen and the start menu via the control panel. I also changed the password.
Here's the problem: In Windows Exporer, when I view the file structure for the C:\ drive, I still see my daughter's name as the primary user folder under: Computer / Windows7_OS (C / Users / DAUGHTER'S NAME / My Documents. So even though I changed the account name over to my name and changed the password, my daughter's name is still in the directory path to My Documents.
How can I fix this? If I delete this user and set up a new user will this mess up the computer? My sense is that bad things will happen as this was the name that the Thinkpad was initialized with.... Thanks!

Hi,
please follow instructions on this link
i would suggest you backup your data first,
to be safe.

Obtaining Windows user name via apex

Hi All,
I have a few apps in apex that are used by multiple users. I am trying to find a way to obtain the windows login / username for anyone who executes a procedure via apex.
I have done some searching and created the process below to insert the username when the main process are executed, however this only gives me the apex login, which is generic across all users.
Does anyone know how i can get the actual users username please.
DECLARE
c owa_cookie.cookie;
BEGIN
c := owa_cookie.get('LOGIN_USERNAME_COOKIE');
c.vals(1);
insert into TABLE (username)
VALUES c.vals(1)
END;
Thanks in advance.

Getting current windows user name

Hi all,
In my BSP application, i would like to fetch the current windows logged in username. I did it using
Active X Controls. If i ActiveX Objects, i need to change my browser settings. Which i don't want to do.
Could you tell me anyother way doing it using JAVASCRIPT or VBSCRIPT or anything.
Regards,
Ravi Varma

Halo Durairaj,
I have seen your answer in the mentioned posting.We are getting a problem if we try the code which you have mentioned in the posting. The problem is that, we need to change security setting of the web browser. Otherwise, the solution is not working. We need to change the setting, because the solution which you have provided works based on ActiveX Controls. Is there any other way, to do the same in BSP?
Thanks & regards,

Get Windows domain name and user through jsp

I have a jsp page that will be viewed through ie on windows platform, that is a member of domain.
I need to get the domain name and logged in windows user name to use it in my page.
I've looked through similar topics. Found no answer.
1.
System.parameter("user.name") is not ok. it returns user that runs jvm.
2.
import com.sun.security.auth.module.NTSystem;
NTSystem system = new NTSystem();
system.getDomain()
system.getName()that didn't work through jsp, though the answer is correct.
3. I found some api at http://www.sinotar.com/download/swin/doc/index.html
it did the right thing, but it's not free.
Could anyone advice me smth?
I've looked

well, it won't work in your jsp because jsps run server-side
could try putting an applet on your page that does it, but I wouldn't be surprised if the security manager put the kibosh on that, too
a third - but clunky - way would be to write a quick java app that does it, and launch it through WebStart. bit ugly, and needs extra user input they might not want to do

Scan string for computer user name

Good morning NI Forums,
I need direction on a file path scan. I'm trying to get to the user name on any system, primarily XP or 7. I'd like to compare the user name from the "Get System Directory" VI with a constant user name.This way I can pass that to a case structure and close LabVIEW if the computer is logged into the wrong user (there are network read/write permissions which is why I need to control where the program isrun from). Any suggestions for the format string constant or maybe a better mouse trap?
I've attached my VI for reference.
Thanks!

Caml query - get current user name

I have an external list via BDC (so cannot change column type, create calculated column or workflow
). There is a text column “Supervisor”. I need to create a view that display all items which the value of “Supervisor” = current login user’s display name or login name (windows user name).
I tried set up the field on the UI with [Me] function which does not work because “Supervisor” is not an user/group type column. Now I am working on the code. I found the follow caml query on the web that is close to what I need:
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name='Supervisor' LookupId='TRUE'/>
<Value Type='Integer'><UserID/></Value>
</Eq>
I know this only work if the ‘Supervisor’ type is “User”. I just wonder if someone know how to replace the <Value> with a text string
of the current user’s display name or window name? I really appreciate for any help (I have struggled with this issue for a week).
Forget to mention that I am working on a web part page in SharePoint designer, not in Visual Studio. So I cannot not using spcontext class.

Thank you again for your response. For this method, I need need to find a way to get the current user to a variable, the use the varrible in the query. This works for me:
<ParameterBinding Name="UserID" Location="CAMLVariable;ServerVariable(LOGON_USER)" DefaultValue="CurrentUserName"/>
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name="Supervisor"/>
<Value Type="Text">{UserID}</Value>
                </Eq>
                <Eq>
<FieldRef Name="AttnMonitor"/>
<Value Type="Text">{UserID}</Value>
               </Eq>

WD Abap - get system (windows) user

hi folks,
is it possible to get the system user (e.g. windows user) when running a webdynpro abap application?
kind regards,
oliver

Hi Martin,
The system only allows someone to access oss tickets of their own company. Heidi was referring to the oss ticket, Oliver had created.
Anyway, the response was that web browsers don't transmit the windows user name for security reasons. In general, the windows user name should not be trusted and should not be used for authentication purposes inside of a SAP system. Nonetheless, using Single Sign On, there might be a slim chance to develop something that connects a SAP user with a windows user.
Best regards,
Thomas

Ix4-300d: User name / permissions

Hello,
i've acquaired a ix4-300d which seems to work fine in general as the configuration is accessible through the web interface and i could also access the shares which already existed until activating security.
I am working with a Win7 User account that looks like "Firstname Lastname". When I try to access the shares using the Storage Manager, it asks to set a password for user "Firstname Lastname". After setting a password, there is no new user added to the user page, also i cannot add this user manually as a blank is not supported in a user name. Although I would consider this behaviour to be a bug as there might be several windows users using blanks within their user names, i tried to rename my account to just "Firstname" which didn't effect my ability to access my shares.
Any ideas what I can do?
Best Regards,
BlindFish

Hi BlindFish,
The password you enter in Storage Manager should match the password for the currently logged-in user on the local computer. If the computer user name is not set up as a user account on the Lenovo network device, you will need to do so.
Storage Manager uses the currently logged in Windows user account to connect to authorized Shares on the selected network storage device. If the Windows user name matches a user account set up on the device, Storage Manager will request the password to provide access to secured shares where that user has access permission. If the Windows user name does not match a valid user account on the device, Storage Manager will display only Public Shares.
You can change your Windows user account so it does not contain any spaces like you did, but there would need to be a user created on the NAS that matches the Windows user account name.
