Unique identifier on a terminal server (rdp)

Hi
I have an application running in server-client environments where I have a record for each machine. To search the record that belongs to the Maschine I use an UUID (from the net-adapter). That works fine.

Now I have to run this application in a TerminalServer-environment. In this environment I always get the UUID of the server of course. What posibilities do I have to detect on which machine I launch the application?

Thanks, Peter

How about get client IP address? Or even MAC address?

@Sinisa: I think getting IP-address or mac I can only get the adresses of the server because the app runs on it
@Geert: ClientName seems a possible solution. What's about sessionname: isn't it each time I log in different? What I need to do: as written in my first post I have a database with a record for each machine to save local settings. I don't want save them on the local machine (i.e. user-directory). When I have them in the central database I can change the data from every client on any pc.
