You can try this. It does not always work.

import win32pipe, string

workstation_name= "machinename"
workstation_userid= ""
lines= win32pipe.popen("nbtstat -a " + workstation_name).readlines()
for line in lines:
  fields= string.split(line)
  if len(fields) < 3:
    continue
  if fields[1] == "<03>" and string.upper(workstation_name) !=
fields[0]:
    workstation_userid= fields[0]
# prints blank if could not find
print workstation_userid
