    What or whose domain name are you talking about?

    I need the domain name when I login into my jsp application. I need the
    domain name of my local network but I don't want to hard code it.

    That only gives me the name of the web server. I need the domain...

    Then you'll need to clarify what you mean by "domain name". The name
    returned by getServerName() is the name which was looked up via DNS
    (which is the "domain name service") by the client.

    If you want only the domain part of it, the following code will work:

    int index = serverName.indexOf('.');
    if (index == -1) domainName = null;
    else domainName = serverName.substring(index + 1);

    Is that what you want? Or something else?

    Oh, you want the name of the client. In that case, try
    request.getRemoteHost() instead.

    What I'm looking for is the actually name of the domain where a user logs
    onto their network. For example when you log onto your machine at work if
    it is on a windows environment you have a User Name:, Password: and Log on
    to: fields to input. I want to know what is the value that a user inputs
    for the Log on to: field, which should be the domain of the network. I need
    this value for a authentication process.

    Oh, that's completely different then. You want to know the Windows NT
    network domain. Unfortunately, I don't know how you can find this out.
    You're more likely to have luck hiding your servlets behind IIS, which
    is designed more for these kinds of Microsoft-specific networks than the
    core servlet API.
