Steve,

GetUserName() is really only useful for the currently logged in user. 
At any given time in Windows NT, multiple users are logged in:  NETWORK, 
SYSTEM, and maybe a few actual people.  The only way I see an 
application working as expected would be to write a program that uses 
sockets to send the value of GetUserName() to a specific machine on the 
network from logged in user accounts.
