Logon to Domain

[Dragos]

Hello.

I want to get from the user - in MS Access - Username, Password and Domain name, then check if these credentials are accepted on that domain. Maybe get the user's Fullname thereafter, but this is not mandatory.
I have no problem dealing with the required form but the domain things..

Please, does anyone have any idea on what API's can I use to accomplish this?

Thanks...

You can look to use something called the Environ function. There are a number of variables within it that might assist you.

Here is a link to a website that list them. Also not the code at the bottom to run into the Debug window (Immediate Window).

The most common one is getting the username

debug.print Environ("UserName")

Thanks alot.

I do not want to use environment, there is still a "chance" that environment variables could be modified by applications and so on.

In addition, I can get the user name of the currently logged in user (GetUserNameA function from advapi32.dll), but I don't know what to use to check that the user is really logged on teh domain that he/she enetered in the "Domain" textbox or just on the machine itself.
