Number of options, non of which are native to the OS:

1. You can use srvmgr (NT style), which is available in the resource kit.

2. You can do an nbstat -a <machinename> against the machine in question
and you should see the <03> record of any user logged in on that PC.

3. Or you can use WMI. This below was posted awhile back.I have not tried
it, therefore I cannot answer any questions regarding syntax errors.

WMI provides a nice way of doing this. A VBScript example:

strComputer = WScript.Arguments(0)
Set wbemServices = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer &
"\root\cimv2") Set wbemObjectSet =
wbemServices.InstancesOf("Win32_ComputerSystem")

For Each wbemObject In wbemObjectSet
WScript.Echo "Current User: " & wbemObject.UserName
Next

If you saved the above as currentuser.vbs, you could call it from
command-line as:
cscript currentuser.vbs <computername-to-check>
Or, you could change strComputer to be the name of the computer to
check.

There are other scripts you can possibly use at Microsoft's Script Center at
www.technet.com, or you can visit http://cwashington.netreach.net for
thousands of free scripts and I'm sure one or two will do what you are
looking for.'
