We have SMS, Kerberos, and who knows what else. All I know is right now
I have to call the LAN dudes and they look up the IP in AD. Don't know
if it comes from a login.script process, accounting function, don't
care. I know it's there and I can get at it - somehow!

How are you going to populate AD with this information to associate a
machine (computer object) with its user? There is no association or
recording, by default, in AD, unless you have a login script updating
the computer object or a table somewhere.
Or if you have something like LANDesk or SMS that manages the PCs and
records the interactive logins for your workstations, and query against
that.

Subject: [Ntop] create additional resolve or WhoIS function?
Hello,
In our environment our machine names (DNS, WINS, etc.) are asset ID
numbers - not common user names. When trying to figure out a user name
for a specific IP, it's kinda a hassle.
I'm wondering if someone would be interested in building me an
additional resolve or whois function so I can resolve these names
against an LDAP / AD table. I THINK I can get the visibility required
to do so via LDAP.
Ideally the resolve / lookup process will do this new function if an IP
address falls within a defined range (our internal RFC-1918 IP's for
example). If that's too much hassle, if I had an additional button on
the html page(s) to getUnameFromLDAP - that would be cool too.
If $$ would be required to make this happen quickly - or at all - let me
know and I'll see what I can do.
Thanks!
Gary
