I've seen a number of posts with this question, but it appears that it may not be possible.

i can take user's ip and machine name. i think about to make a search to ldap. but i dont know the data structure of ldap.

when i take the ip of user then i can make a query to ldap like that: "what is the user name of this ip or machine name?"

but i dont know it is possible...

😕

Have you tried searching for yourself - you know, using machines to do the drudge work instead of sovereign intelligences?
