If u can't rely on DNS u could nbtstat. That can take a NetBIOS name and return success/failure. Another thing u could do is use psexec to remotely run ipconfig on every ip in ur network. U only have 2400 so it shouldn't take too long if u multi thread it. U can collect that output and get a name/ip database. -- REMEMBER THE WORLD TRADE CENTER ---=< WTC 911 >=-- "...ne cede malis" 00000100 _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
