mdarling Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Is there a way to use the windows authentication when a user logs on to a computer and use that in the browser to authenticate a web application written in php? I would like to create a seamless transition for the users using the application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joel24 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 you would need to install a java applet or ActiveX controls... can't do it through PHP or Javascript to my knowledge *edit* quick google found this activeX code <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- var WinNetwork = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Network"); alert(WinNetwork.UserName); //--> </script> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdarling Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 hmm... yeah i was really hoping to stay away from any java and active x but i really appreciate the input and might just use it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdarling Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Actually, there is a Kerberos Module for Apache that might do the trick. @TeNDoLLA - not really sure why you said that. You really didn't contribute anything did you? I was just thanking the guy and expressing my distaste for java and activeX - i am hoping for a mostly php solution. This is a php forum after all.
