Hi Like in Windows XP you press CTRL+ALT+DELETE and find where the user is
logged into either local system or domain, is there a way in Vista to do teh
same?

Sudhir,

Domain drop-down list is gone, but you can get Vista's CTRL+ALT+DELETE logon
screen implementation same way you get it on XP:

- Join Windows domain
OR
- Open User Accounts applet and select "Require users to press
Ctrl+Alt+Delete"

To open User Accounts applet, press "Windows key" + R, type "control
userpasswords2" without quotes and press Enter

Well, as a cmd junkie what I usually do is open command prompt and use
"whoami" command without quotes.

whoami.exe is builtin in Vista and is part of Support Tools / Resource Kit
for earlier versions of Windows.
