Extracting the Username of the logged-on user

[Vinnie the Rat]

Is there something in either VB script or Java that can (at the client end)
extract the username of the logged-on user that could be subsequently passed
to a session variable or to the server? I'd like to use this information to
restrict/allow access to certain menu's and therefore control access to the
application.

Not really, turn off anonymous access and then you can use
Request.ServerVariables("AUTH_USER") or
Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
