And i want to write script , which using this profile to autologin - i know it's possible, for example using LADP. I hope you will help me with this, thanks.

What webserver are you using? If you are using IIS, you can have IIS take care of this by enabling WWW authentication and using "Integrated Windows Authentication".

It's possible we have IIS server - i'm sure that's soft from Microsoft , but i don't have permission to IIS configuration. What should i know about this server , some examples maybe please ?

edit: IIS is not available for me, i'm workin on other sever - so i have to write script which will take information about user profile from server or client machine

If you can't use IIS, you have a couple of options:

If you are using Apache webserver, mod_auth_vas allows you to use "Integrated Windows Authentication". In Internet Explorer and FireFox, this means that the username, password, and domain name you used to log into the network will be used to authenticate your request to the webserver.
You can design your own PHP script with a login form that communicates with Active Directory (assuming you're an Active Directory environment) to authenticate the user. To do this, you'll be using the [man]LDAP[/man] library. This link provides an example of how to authenticate via LDAP.

mod_auth_vas - i have to talk with admin , now this mod is not available on our serer but LDAP is solution for me - so i have to write script in php which will take information about user profile from server? or client machine?. Should i confirm this information with authentication server ?

Thanks , Jarek.
