    I believe the only way to do it would be to have some app running on the other machine aswell.
    Then you would just need the IP address or hostname of the system to connect to the other application, and it would provide the info.

    Try the utilities you can get at www.sysinternals.com. I know their psexec program can get you a remote command prompt of the other computer.

    There, I fixed it. The forum parser put the url tags around the site address wrong and left the period at the end.
