I am trying figure out/troubleshoot a problem and am missing a critical piece of info: the hostname of the pc. The user isn't clever enough/willing to give me the info via email/phone.

Is there a tool that will allow me to pull the hostname, given the name of the "logged in" user.

I'm living in a Win2K world, with a mix of Win2k & NT4 clients.
