bebbus Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 He peoples,I have a small problem / question, I want to see on which computer(name) a user logged on.I´ve searched every where but I didn´t find a thing. The only thing that I found was: nbtstat but that´s reverse. with this commando you search on computername and then you see the user, that´s not what I want.Hopefully can someone here help me out.greetzbebbus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrescendoBEAt Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 hello,explain more what u want to see and where? i mean do u used domain controller or not? the server which the users login, is stand alone or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bebbus Posted June 1, 2005 Author Share Posted June 1, 2005 Yes, I´m using a domain controller windows 2003 active directory around 2000 users. I tried several tools but with all tools I can see the computer and which user is logged on. I want to see the user and then I want to see which computer he logged on.

tarquel Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 are you refering to finding what computer a certain user logged on throughout the day?You can use Event Viewer for that and use the filter of it to narrow down the search results really easy.You can use File Server Management to display useful stuff like all the shares on the server, the current seesions active, and the users currently logged on and on what machine/IP they are logged on to.Regards,Nath.

You can add it to your logon script if you like. It will create a txt file named after the user. Inside it will be a list of every computer that person has logged onto since the script was first executed. If you like you could add a time command which will tell you what time each user logged onto each computer. This example will create a document for every user but you can have every user in the same document if you like.echo %computername% >> %username%.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bebbus Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 I´m trying to change the logon script, I don´t know if it´s going to work we will see soon.The strange thing is when I use "net send" and a username it will appeare on the users screen.This means that there is some kind of database that holds usernames and computernames. Or is this stupid thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bebbus Posted June 13, 2005 Author Share Posted June 13, 2005 Ok, so if netsend use broadcast why can´t I use a command such as netsend with the parameter %username% or something like that.Pstools uses the registry to find the username. but if there are 2000 computers this will take along time. and netsend works very fast.

Shane_pug Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 (edited) net config server /srvcomment:%username%If you add this to the logon script, this will add the username to the comments field when you browse the computers in My Network Places, entire network Edited June 14, 2005 by Shane_pug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrescendoBEAt Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 if u use DHCP just go to the DHCP console and on subtree of the scope u can see the users which is logged in and the computer name of them in detail. by the way try compmgmt.msc in Run and check the Session tree in console.
