To my knowledge, the .NET framework does not expose to managed code the API required to achieve this. You will have to p/invoke quite a few WINAPI functions and define at least one structure and some enums on the .NET side.
If you’re willing to follow that path, you can:
Call WTSEnumerateSessions(), passing
WTS_CURRENT_SERVER_HANDLEin thehServerargument,Iterate over the returned WTS_SESSION_INFO structures and locate the one whose
Statemember has theWTSActiveandWTSConnectedbits set (there should only be one in your case),Pass the
SessionIdmember of that structure to WTSQuerySessionInformation(), specifyingWTSUserNamein theWTSInfoClassargument,Read the user name from the returned buffer,
Use WTSFreeMemory() to free the buffer and the array of
WTS_SESSION_INFOstructures.As you can see, this isn’t really trivial. Good luck.
