How to Get Local Machine Domain Name

Keywords:   domain name computer

---

Question:

I need to capture the local machine's domain name and set as default. Where do I find this, and what function can I use if possible?

Answer:

We don't have a function to do that at this time, but you can read it from the registry.

In 95:

   @regmachine, "System\CurrentControlSet\Services\BXD\VNETSUP\Workgroup[]"

and in NT:

   @regmachine, "Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\DefaultDomainName[]"
