Hello Subbarao,

I have had the same problem. Eventually, the network operator told me that in a
certain login-file-batch-thing-I-Dont-know the dos environment variable USER was
assigned the value of the login username. It is possible (at least in Turbo
Pascal) to get the value of that environment variable USER.

If this is not the right way to retrieve a login username, I would appreciate to
know. 

Greetinx

Sytze.
