You can get the user information from the WindowsIdentity object by doing the following

WindowsIdentity identity = HttpContext.Current.Request.LogonUserIdentity;

You can find information on the object here

There is a property called Name that will give you the authenticated user name.

To get the clients machine name, you could use this:

string clientMachineName = Dns.GetHostEntry(Request.ServerVariables["remote_addr"]).HostName);

Hope that helps.
