How to map machine IP to its user?

On our domain, we have a PC in use. I know the IP address of the PC, now I'd
like to find out the user that is logged into that machine. Is there a
command line tool that I can do this with?

Thanks

NBTSTAT -a <ip#>
(older versions NBTSTAT -A <ip#>)

....or...

NBTSTAT -a <machinename>

Older versions of it required an uppercase "-A" when using the IP#, but
newer versions of it will work either way with either uppercase or lowercase
"-a",...however they never changed the Help (NbtStat /?) so is still says
you have to switch cases.

Phil,

This does not show you the user logged onto a machine.

Here is a sample output from my workstation:
________________________________________________
Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [192.168.13.70] Scope Id: []

NetBIOS Remote Machine Name Table

Name Type Status
---------------------------------------------
COMP-RM <00> UNIQUE Registered

The last line shows the username that is logged into the machine. That line
is missing if no one is logged into the machine.

Walk up to a machine, open a command prompt window and type the command.
then you will know if it does what you need or not.

nbtstat -a name or nbtstat -A IPaddy does not show the logged on user when
run on my workstation against several different machines (NT4 server, 2k3
server) including localhost (XP SP2). I've seen it in the past on others
though.

Not sure why that would be.

It works for me when run on XP for clients running W2K but not XP.

On 2k it gives me the user name but the next line has administrator, who is
not logged on. There are scheduler events that run as administrator but
none are running.

Reply in group, but if emailing add
2 more zeros and remove the obvious.

Maybe I opened a real "who dunnit" with that one, eh? It has always worked
for me and I just thought it always worked for everyone and was "common
knowledge". I didn't know there was such mystery swirling around
it,...hmmm.
