WMI can also be used directly with Delphi since it's an ActiveX technology. www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter Also, take a look at the SysInternals tools, now also part of Microsoft. They have a series of command line programs called PsTools that includes lots of management of servers on a network. www.sysinternals.com Todd Steve Riley <stevenriley@ <mailto:stevenriley%40btopenworld.com> btopenworld.com> wrote on Sat, 2 Jun 2007 06:57:05 +0100: > Thanks, I have searched google but can't find anything, I will look for WMI > Steve > > _____ > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:delphi-en%40yahoogroups.com> ps.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:delphi-en%40yahoogroups.com> ps.com] On Behalf > Of Marselle Caston > Sent: 01 June 2007 18:27 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:delphi-en%40yahoogroups.com> ps.com > Subject: Re: [delphi-en] Get User Login Name from another computer > > I think if I am not mistaken that you can get this > information as well using the System.Management class > I have done this in C# .net and I am sure that there > is an easier way to use the same methodology in Delphi > I would look at Delphi examples using "WMI" > --- Thomas Hruska <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:thruska%40cubiclesoft.com> > .com> wrote: > > Steve Riley wrote: > > > Hi All > > > > > > I need to find out who is logged onto another > > machine on my network > > > > > > i know that GetUserName collects the information > > about the current user on > > > my machine > > > but how can i find out about a different machine > > from my own machine, > > > > > > any code would be great > > > Thanks in advance > > > > > > Steve > > > > 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.
