If I execute the command nbtstat -a <IP>
Where the IP belong to a XP machine, I do not get the username listed. Whats
is the equivalent command in XP to get the current logged in username?

Best to ask this question in a Windows XP newsgroup. You're
currently in a Server group.
 
Re: NBTSTAT -a in XP

Works fine for me. Host (10.1.1.2) is Vista, remote is XP Sp3.

nbtstat -a 10.1.1.4

Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [10.1.1.2] Scope Id: []

Netbios Remote Machine Name Table
Name Type Status
---------------------------------------------
CHAS <00> UNIQUE Registered
CHAS <20> UNIQUE Registered
CAMDEN <00> GROUP Registered
CAMDEN <1E> GROUP Registered
CAMDEN <1D> UNIQUE Registered
..__MSBROWSE__.<01> GROUP Registered

MAC Address = 00-0C-F1-D6-D5-53

Re: NBTSTAT -a in XP

Don't forget that usernames must be unique, so if user has already
logged on a different workstation then the username was likely already
registered at that station.

Here's a trick that might help you find out what machine has that
registered name (doesn't lways work, and relies on net send and
messenger service).

NET SENT <USERNAME> ""

The above line includes a set of quoues with nothing between them, not
even a space.

If the message was successfully sent (the recipient won't see
anything), then type

NBTSTAT -c

and look for the ip address in your cache.

Hope this helps....
