hi everyone,
anybody knows how to change view of $REMOTE_USER (NT) on the page?
I have
and on the page is "domain_name\\user_name". Is possible to show only "username"?
Thanks

a quick, easy, answer would be to strip out the domain_name\\ part (if it exists) with regular expressions

Try
parse_url and Bob or whoever the user is, is your uncle

Well you shouldn't need a regular expression for this,
explode() could do it:
Code: Select all
$info = explode('\'', $_SERVER['REMOTE_USER']);
$username = $info[1];
echo $username;

Not sure why it's $info[2] - you should only have 2 elements in the array but hey, if it works...
