Need Network Scan Utility NOT NetBIOS-Based
Need Network Scan Utility NOT NetBIOS-Based
We are not running NetBIOS, LMHOSTS, WINS, or domains (all standalone PCs).
All clients are winXP.
I would like to enter an IP address range (for instance 10.133.12.*) and get returned the MAC address and ‘Host Name’ of each PC in the subnet.
The closest utility I have found is Colasoft MAC Scanner. It gives me the MAC address of each IP address, but for ‘Host Name’, it gives me the NAT address. What I need is the ‘Host Name’ which you get when 'IPCONFIG /all' is run, for instance:
C:\WINDOWS>ipconfig /all
Windows IP Configuration
Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : NEIU-81233
…
What I get from Colasoft MAC Scanner is:
10.133.12.160, 00:0B:DB:4E:B8:C1, nat-12-160.neiu.edu
…
In the example above, NEIU-81233 is the name I gave to that particular PC when windows was installed.
Is it possible to get what I am looking for?
It appears to me that the windows ‘Host Name’ has been essentially replaced by the NAT address, as far as network scanning is concerned. So is what I am trying to do impossible?
TIA – J.

Re: Need Network Scan Utility NOT NetBIOS-Based
The NAT address is obtained via DNS?
You can create a batch script to run ping -a and arp to identify machines. Does ping -a returns the correct hostname?
nmap is a good tool also.

Por que hacerlo dificil si es posible hacerlo facil? - Why do it the hard way, when you can do it the easy way?

Re: Need Network Scan Utility NOT NetBIOS-Based
nmap will be quite useful, but not with this particular problem.
I think that because of the way my network is NATed, and without netbios, what I am trying to do can't be done.
