win32 authentication with php

[Jana]

I am trying to convert an asp page running on IIS over to a php page running on apache. The asp page uses the code below to validate a windows login. Is there a way to validate a windows login with php?

If Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") = "" Then
Response.Status = "401 Access Denied"
Response.End
End If

DIM i

i = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")

if i="domainname\username" then......

Thanks,
Jana

Since you are using Apache use a .htaccess file and a .htpasswd file then your php script will be able to access $_SERVER[PHP_AUTH_USER] or $PHP_AUTH_USER (depending on your php.ini settings).
