LAN Scanner

[Guest Jet]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a free LAN scanner to obtain IP

address, PC name and logged on user?

 

Thank you.

NBTscan is a neat little tool which might help. A friend wrote a script

to wrap it into PowerShell, he blogged about it here:

Here's what the output looks like:

 

PS D:\ps> Get-NBTHosts 10.150.5.0/24

 

IPAddress Name User MACAddress

--------- ---- ---- ----------

10.150.5.3 HHHSSC65SP5 <unknown> XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

10.150.5.6 HHHSQL <unknown> XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

10.150.5.8 HHHFDBSVR <unknown> XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
