Hi, OK, after a lot more searching of the ports system - nothing found so = far. Something joggled a neuron to have a look at what samba utils could tell = me. By running: "nmblookup -A <IP Number or PC name>" it quickly returns a = nice list of info. All I need to do then is grep for '<03>' and exclude the = PC name to have a list of users logged into that PC or Server. I have only done hand testing. I will whip up a script, and test it out during a work day to see how it goes ;-) Cool.
