getting username from computer network name

I have a list of ips that I use to get the computer names for these ips. I was wondering if there is anyway in c# to tie the computer name to the logged in user to that computer or vice versa. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I never found a way to enumerate all users that are logged in, fast-switching or terminal server, but you can use WMI and query the processes (Win32_Process) to get the owner of the explorer.exe process. This will tell you who is actively logged into the local machine.

You need to enumerate sessions on each machine and pick one (or many) you like. Note that it would require box admin privileges (i.e. running as domain admin). See C# - List of Logon Sessions for details.

Note that result will be many-to-many mapping.
