IP Address to Machine Name via command line? 1

[rhearn]

Is there a command I can use that resolves ip address
to machine name via command line???

Thanks in advance.

on the command line type ipconfig <retrn> You should get the machine name, IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address.

IPCONFIG /ALL will only show your own machine. I think you want to find other workstations on your network. I use NBTSTAT.

NBTSTAT -A 10.0.0.1
NBTSTAT -a MACHINENAME

NBTSTAT /? (For a complete listing)

From a command line I use ping.
ping netbios name and it returns the ip address.
ping -a ipaddress and it returns the netbios name.
