There is no solution for Win9x systems, per se, other than reading the registry and determining if the system is configured to logon to a domain. Win9x systems do not join a domain in the same manner that WinNT/2K/XP systems join a domain.
Start by looking in:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Winlogon[DefaultDomain]This is the only thing that tells whether or not a Win9x system is configured to logon to a domain. Win9x systems do not get computer accounts in a domain and there is no secured channel established where the workstation itself logs on to the domain using a computer account so that DCs in the domain can be trusted to authenticate domain user logon requests on the workstation. Instead, Win9x simply requests a DC to authenticate a domain users's credentials and then stores the access token for use in accessing network resources that require authenticated user credentials.
