From: Brian Takita Date: 2005-04-26T02:29:28+09:00 Subject: Get the Current Domain Name in Windows Hello, I am trying to find out the domain name for the current user. This is my first endeavor into dl/win32 and I am having no luck getting the data. Here is a reference to the function I am trying to call: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/netmgmt/netmgmt/netwkstausergetinfo.asp Here is a reference to the struct where I am trying to extract the data from: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/netmgmt/netmgmt/wksta_user_info_1_str.asp Here is my code with the results in the header: # username: # logon_domain: # oth_domains: # logon_server: require 'dl/win32' getUserNameInfo = Win32API.new('Netapi32.dll', 'NetWkstaUserGetInfo', %w{p l P}, 'i') bufferFree = Win32API.new('Netapi32.dll', 'NetApiBufferFree', %w{p}, 'l') reserved = "\0" * 4 buf = " " * 4 * 255 begin getUserNameInfo.call(reserved, 1, buf) username, logon_domain, oth_domains, logon_server = buf.unpack('AAAA') puts 'username: ' + username puts 'logon_domain: ' + logon_domain puts 'oth_domains: ' + oth_domains puts 'logon_server: ' + logon_server ensure bufferFree.call(buf) end Thank you, Brian Takita
