list of clients connected to a database

I remember some time ago, coincidenteally, by browsing around in system
tables, I saw a place where I could see which clients were connected to
which database, allowing me to select all client names connected to a
particular database.
But I forgot where I found this (in SQL7).
Can someone tell me?

|||Thanks, strange enough, under client name, it lists the server name running
the sql server rather than the name of the client connecting to it.. this is
weird.

program can specify whatever name it fancies.

|||HOST_NAME() depens on the ODBC connection string?
How? Is it the WSID parameter?
See, I always wondered what the difference was between WSID and SERVER as
they seemed to be the same, but obviously that was because I was working on
the same machine running the server locally.
Where can I find a list of ODBC connection string parameters and their
meaning?
I just kind of figured these things out by GetConnect() from within C++.
