Re: find system user is currently logged onto

Brad and Steven thank you for responding. Yes Brad you were correct I wanted
a tool that one could input the user ID and the system they were currently
logged onto would be the output, preferably the System name and IP address.
Steven Thank you again for the solution.

The reason I was wondering about it being a VBS or WHS script is for
modification purpose, I was wanting to be able to add in a feature or two,
something like which services were running, memory and CPU usage.
