Question:

Is there a function to get the current username of the user on a remote pc. i use this script but theres an error:

AddExtender("WWW9534I.DLL")
username=w95GetUser(\\gm-edp1)
Message("Current User is",username)

it returns my username not their username

Answer:

If you have admin access to the machine and can do a RegConnect to it,you can query the remote registry for...

NT

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon [DefaultUserName]

Win9x

HKLM\Network\logon[Username]

is the name of the last interactively logged on user.
