I need to get the local Computer Name for a desktop computer running our software application through a Citrix session. When I query My.Computer.Name I get the name of the server.
How can I get the name of the actual physical computer that the session is running on, and is there there an event I can monitor for when someone switches a session from one computer to another?
Found a server variable as Kobi suggested above:
%CLIENTNAME%it is only populated in Terminal Services or Citrix, expanding it on you local PC will return
%CLIENTNAME%. However, on a citrix or RDP server it works great. The .net code I am using is:TSHostName = Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables("%CLIENTNAME%")
