Hello,
I have a question. When inside of the Configuration manager and looking at a collection I don't know what the users computer is because it doesn't show a name associated with the computer. Is there a way to display the computer name and the user's name on the same screen so I can remote to it?
Thanks.
If I understand you correctly, you want to remote to a user's machine but you don't know the machine name, only the name of the user on that machine.
You can try this WMI query which will return you the machines where the user was the last to log on to:
select NetbiosName from SMS_R_system where LastLogonUserName = 'TheUserName'
Why do you need the username to remote c

That is correct, but they don't want to do a query. They want to just see a screen with [Computer Name] [User]. Then, remote to it.
While inside the console, you can do a show members of the collection, but i have not seen an option to also show the last logged on user, or user affinity information.
How do you remote to a users computer if you know the user but not the computer name?

Find the user and checking the user's primary devices is one way.
I believe that's the only way. I really like that way. Just, my boss doesn't.
This can also be achieved by using right click tools.
