Machine's domain name in .NET?

Question

There gotta be an easy way to do this, I can\'t believe there\'s none. I have scanned through net and found, like, 20 different methods to find in which domain current user is,

Answer 1

Using GetCurrentDomain is the same as Environment.UserDomainName, which works incorrectly if your program is running on a domain computer as a non-domain user. I've used the following code:

try
{
    return System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Domain.GetComputerDomain().Name;
}
catch (Exception)
{
    return Environment.UserDomainName;
}
