Is it right?


char lpBuffer[50];
GetEnvironmentVariable("userdomain",lpBuffer,50);
printf(lpBuffer);

Hi

Thanks for your response but I think "userdomain" is a crucial parameter. I know my Machine Name and nothing else. I got the solution anyway. I used gethostbyName which returns HOSTENT structure which has the Domain details
