Showing users with Names instead of IP addresses

I have less than 50 users. When I analyze top users by time spent; it would save me some time if it showed users by name rather than IP address. Can I assign a name to an IP address somewhere?

Hello,

are you using authentication backends (ADS, Agent ...) ?
Normale with the SAA (Auth. Agent) the username should appear.

Hi Dave,

Yes you can, it will take some time but if you wish you can create Network host definition for every computer (scrshot 1).

After that in your reports you will see name instead of IP address (scrshot 2).

I am not recommending this approach, but it works..[;)]

Hi,
If each user has a uniquely named PC/laptop/MAC/linux box, then you can use the DNS entry.
