Integrating with Active Directory

[edukulla]

Hi I am working on a portal which is exactly the same as this one like a discussion forum internal to our org you can say. Here i have a requirement where users internal to our org will use it. When the user connect to our portal, we want to show on the page a welcome message EX: " Welcome Santhosh..." I suppose this information is fetched from AD. Can we have a code with similar requirements written for any of you. I have to do it, but i have very little time frame and it is the added requirement at the end. You may want to share the code if it is ok with any of you. Thanks in Advance! Santhosh
