How to find "primary dns suffix" for all computers in domain

[COMPUTERTECH33]

Hi all. I have an NT 4.0 domain. How can I find the primary dns suffix for each pc without using a manual process?

Is there a scanner that will display this?


Thanks

The Domain is NT... What OS are you running on your clients?

Windows xp and windows 98.

You can run the following script to give you the info on the xp machines. Save the code into a text file named NetworkSettings.vbs
Change strComputer = "." to the name of a remote machine, example strComputer = "workstation1"

On Error Resume Next

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
    & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
    ("Select * from Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")

For Each objItem in colItems
    Wscript.Echo "DNS Domain: " & objItem.DNSDomain
    Wscript.Echo "DNS Domain Suffix Search Order: " & _
        objItem.DNSDomainSuffixSearchOrder
    Wscript.Echo "DNS Enabled For WINS Resolution: " & _
        objItem.DNSEnabledForWINSResolution
    Wscript.Echo "DNS Host Name: " & objItem.DNSHostName
    Wscript.Echo "DNS Server Search Order: " & objItem.DNSServerSearchOrder
    Wscript.Echo "Domain DNS Registration Enabled: " & _
        objItem.DomainDNSRegistrationEnabled
    Wscript.Echo "Forward Buffer Memory: " & objItem.ForwardBufferMemory
    Wscript.Echo "Full DNS Registration Enabled: " & _
        objItem.FullDNSRegistrationEnabled
    Next

Here is the same code with all the network properties should you want to gather more info.

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
    & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

    ("Select * from Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")
