Does anybody know of a simple command line or GUI tool that will match the logged in NetBIOS user name associated with the corresponding NetBIOS Computer Name that correlates to a specific IP address (found in WINS or DNS)?

In other words, given an IP address, who's logged into that address? #-)

Try using nbtstat command as in nbtstat -a and this will give the info you need to find out whose IP address it is.
 
why can't you use WINS to give you the username?
 
Thanks, but I'm looking for a little more than that. I would like to see a listing of everyone who is currently looged on and what IP address they're using.

The NBTSTAT command does not list, it only provides a one-by-one answer.

WINS does not provide who is currently logged on. It just displays registered NetBIOS broadcasts. These entries, in turn, have a certain life span that does not reflect current status at all. Thanks all the same.
