Code for Workstation ID.

Asked by Mr_Fulano in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net

Hi, I have an application that is run from a shared drive. Different users connect to it and run independent sessions on their workstations at their desks. I've built in some error reporting into my App and each of those "errors" or incidents gets logged to a text file on the host's HDD.

My log entries specify the Date and Time of the occurrence, and a brief description of the incident. I can also identify who caused the error by logging their user ID. However, I can't tell which workstation caused the error. Is there a way to capture some sort of workstation ID, or the IP address of the workstation so I can put that into my logs as well?

Thanks,
