Netwrok Information: Users logged in and PC names

[Wokawidget]

I have code, using API, which will allow me to view all users who have an NT account on our network. What I need to know is what PC they are logged into...

Does anyone know how to find a users PC name?

Has anyone got a spare fish?

These work on the current machine:

Private Declare Function WNetGetUser Lib "mpr.dll" Alias "WNetGetUserA" (ByVal _
    lpszLocalName As String, ByVal lpszUserName As String, _
    lpcchBuffer As Long) As Long
 
' return the current default user name or
' the user name used to establish a connection
 
Function NetworkUserName() As String
    Dim buffer As String
    buffer = Space$(256)
    ' if the WNetGetUser API returns 0, then
    ' the user name is in buffer
    If WNetGetUser(vbNullString, buffer, Len(buffer)) = 0 Then
        NetworkUserName = Left$(buffer, InStr(buffer, vbNullChar) - 1)
    End If
End Function

Private Declare Function GetComputerName Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetComputerNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
    'KPD-Team 1998
    'URL: [url]http://www.allapi.net/[/url]
    'E-Mail: [email][email protected][/email]
    Dim strString As String
    'Create a buffer
    strString = String(255, Chr$(0))
    'Get the computer name
    GetComputerName strString, 255
    'remove the unnecessary chr$(0)'s
    strString = Left$(strString, InStr(1, strString, Chr$(0)) - 1)
    'Show the computer name
    MsgBox strString
End Sub

I know how to get the info for my PC, but what I am trying to do it look at all users logged into the network and find out the computer name which they are logged into

I know it's possible. have found code to list all users, and code to list all computer names, but what I can't do is link a computer name to the user logged in, which is what is required.

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

sorry, no idea.. be nice to know tho

[Wokawidget]

I have this, which lists on users on a domain, and whether they are logged in or not. Oh, it's not my code...

[Si_the_geek]

very nice code, I'm sure I'll find a use for it sometime...

having a quick peek at the API-Guide the NetUserGetInfo function is definitely the way to get it... seems that you can pass USER_INFO_x to get various forms of information back, but lack of definitions for the variations of X and how to get the data out unfortunately.

Try searching the web for "NetUserGetInfo and USER_INFO_". I'm sure you'll find it then

Oooo...Just been to pub and had 3 pints
Gotta work feeling very wobbley. Drinking in afternoon doesn't go down to well...

Tried searching on those things but it only produced to result, neithe rof which were any good

*SIGH*

back to the drawing board....

oops... just searched myself, seems that you can only set that bit anyway; I'm out of ideas
