That rerieve the WIndows Login id. If you need the specific login accessing a remote device, you nee to use WNetGetUser() which can rerieve trhe id uses to login onto the remote system attachment. It's documented in the MSDN, and ther have been threads on it oiver the last few weeks.

You can also use several AUtomation objects; among the, Wscrupt,Network to retrieve user id, server names and the like,
