Connected client name

I want to capture the connected client name from remote sessions for reporting purposes, however, I have been unable to find this stored in ADAM, the event database, or any logs I have looked through, so far. I know the agent stores this in HKCU under "ViewClient_Machine_Name" on the actual VM, but does anybody know if this is ever reported or noted on any of the server logs or databases?

I noticed that the client MAC address is reported as the Client ID in the View Admin web GUI, but I do not know where it is pulling that from. Does anybody know where that is stored, and if there is a way to change what is reported as the Client ID (I am assuming it is the agent that reports this)?

Thanks for your time!

I ended up using a logon script that captures the volatile environment registry keys and dumps them to various TXT logs on a share to track user logons, etc.
