i have the following script which works jus fine, however for the strDescription i like to use the current logged on user name. can anyone show me how it would be done.

thanks,

Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002
strComputer = "."
Set objRegistry = GetObject _
("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
strKeyPath = "System\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters"
strValueName = "srvcomment"
strDescription = "Description changed programmatically"
objRegistry.SetStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyPath, strValueName, strDescription

What you want is something along these lines.

set NetObj = Wscript.CreateObject("wscript.Network")

strDescription = NetObj.UserName

Edit: had pc name not username in script
