Take a look at the HttpRequest.UserHostAddress property.

You can get the .UserHostName (DNS), but afaik, you can't get the client
computer's machine name.

You might look into whether there is a client-side scripting way to get it,
which you could then pass through to the server. But, of course client-side
scripting isn't good for public internet apps because you can't count on
client-side scripting to be available and/or allowed by the user in every
browser client.
