Sensing Log-on computername programmatically

[John Goins]

Is there a way to read the computer name that a user uses to log onto
Win2003 Terminal Server? I would like to give different rights based on the
computer name. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Jay Goins

Q. How can I retrieve the client IP number?

A. You can retrieve the client IPnumber and computername with the
WTSQuerySessionInformation function, or the client computername with
the environment variable %CLIENTNAME%.
