We use Netscape and Apache webservers. We configured them for all users to
log into the web-server. In your broker.cfg-file you can set the variable
_RMTUSER ready for export. When you do this, the macro-variable _rmtuser
will be available in SAS.

HTH,
Bas

Subject: Getting Username for Intrnet Application


Hi,

I need to authenticate users of my SAS/Intrnet application.

Users are accessing the application on NT / browser.

Application runs on remote UNIX/AIX machine.



Would I be able to fetch a username from either the local or the remote
platform ? NT has a username environment variable, but how would a
browser be able to fetch it ?

Other way of doing this ?


thanks,
Pete
