For a basic solution:
use strict; use Win32; use Win32::Lanman; my %info; my $server="pdc"; my $user="username"; if (Win32::Lanman::NetUserGetInfo($server, $user, \%info)){ print "$info{name} is $info{full_name}"; } else {print Win32::Lanman::GetLastError()}
I'm sure you can clean up the error messages a bit (something with getlasterror? can't quite remember the syntax for that though). But this should do the trick as is..

UPDATE: Found the easy syntax for error messages and changed the above
