Tool to query which DC a user is logged into 4

[ITAAGuyOR]

Is there a tool to tell me which DC a user is authenticated to on our domain (we have 5 DC's)? I saw this once before, used it, and have since forgot what command shows me this info. Thanks if you know.

command promopt: type

echo %logonserver%,

Thanks for the info. I could have swore there was a command line tool that showed the currently authenticated DC as well as some other info. Nevertheless, this does what I need so thanks for that.

You can also type "set" at the cmd prompt to get more info

set l

works everytime..

You can make all client use a perfered DC's by setting the parameters in DNS. this can also be set using Group Policy.

systeminfo command on an xp station is also good.
