In a project I need to know the name of the machine where the code run.

Everything ok on different servers (MyServerName for example) , exception of a new one I just finished to setup (Windows 2003).

The name I got is quite unusual, at least for me, NT AUTHORITY.

This is the code (response.write is for testing only)

Someone has an idea ?

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
   Dim ThisDomain As String = GetDomainName()
   response.write(ThisDomain)
End Sub

Public Function GetDomainName() As String
   Dim tmp As String = Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.Name()
   Dim pos As Short Dim result As String pos = InStr(tmp, "\")
   If pos <> 0 Then
    result = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Left(tmp, pos - 1) 
   End If
   Return result
End Function
