在php的Intranet上获取客户端Windows登录用户名

Question

I am trying to get the clients username from server which in on the intranet. Im using mozilla firefox and chrome only. I am able to get the information like Client PC Name and Client Pc IP. How can i get the username for the client who access the website on intranet.

The code i am using is below

<?php
    $compt = gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
     // i get complete pc name like example: abbc123.abc.google.com
    $compt_name = $issued_for = strtok($compt,'.');
    //i get the pc name abbc123
    echo $compt_name;
    ?>

how can i use the computer name to get the username? i have tried searching but cant find anything that will work. im using PHP and all answers i get is for c# , Vb etc. The server is running windows server 2012

Answer 1

It is because C# and VB are desktop applications and can access system's username. PHP, however, is a web application that can not access system resources beyond the purview of a web browser.

What you can do, however, is use a java application to fetch the user name from a computer and pass it to PHP.
