IP address and Common Name

On my subnet, I can ping an addres (192.168.1.37) and it shows that it is
being used. Is the a command that I can use to find out what the common name
of what is using that address??? I am on a win2K domain. My DC is running
DHCP. The person before me had 1 to 100 reserved as static IP address (the
rest of the network uses dynamic addresses) but the list he left me was not
complete. I am trying to figure out an easy way to search my network and
update my labels.

 

nbtstat -A XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (note the "A" is capitalized).

 

Ping -a [ip#]
or
NbtStat -a [ip#]

Don't forget the "-a"
Keep it lower case.

 

It works even if lower case,..inspite of what the "NbtStat /?" says. I
don't know way that is the case, but I always took advantage of it and just
left it lower case. But doing it with Ping will only work with lower case,
upper case won't work.

 

nslookup
Then type the IP in.
