User names and workstation names

if you run a script when the user logs on you can determine the machine name at the same time.
if you mean as an admin person can you type in a users name and get back the machine they are logged onto i would say tricky.
i guess you could handle it yourself and when a user logs on get them to create an entry in a file or db or update an active directory field for their user account.
your little admin script would then hve to read the logfile or db or ad field to get the info.
that is unless Active directorty doesnt already have a field in the users object that is updated each time they logon.
sorry i havent been too much help
