Is there a program or command to use that will tell you what computer a user is logged onto?

Thanks for the help
 
Hi,

If you WINS, you can request the wins database with the user loggin. You'll get the @IP of the computer the user is logged on (user automaticaly register in the WINS database for messaging purpose when they loggon), then :
Just do nbtstat -A <@IP of the computer> to get the name of the computer
or
request the WINS database with the @IP of the computer.

Hi,

You can also view it on the ServerManager, If you know what server they are connected to. Open ServerManager, double click on the Server in question and you'll get a list of Users and Workstations that have connections to that server.
Hope it works for you.
