Modify http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlMoveToTarget#Examples very slightly.

i dont think  llTarget("name") would work 

[Rolig Loon]

True.  But that's not the way to do it either.  Try a repeating sensor using the person's name..

Right, and Rolig's example doesn't use it. Also notice her hint "very slightly".

In the example, a sensor continuously locates the object owner, stores the position in "pos" and then passes that position to llMoveToTarget(). The sensor is opened looking for the owner's key. It doesn't care about name, as indicated by "" in the name argument slot of the llSensorRepeat() function. You want to sense an avatar by name, and you don't care what their key is. So you'd pass their name to llSensorRepeat and leave the key field blank. Look at the wiki page for llSensorRepeat for hints...

Once you've set up llSensorRepeat to find the desired avatar, it'll return their position, which the script will pass to llMoveToTarget.

So, as Rolig says, the change is very slight.
