I am trying to determine what system the workgroup/domain listed in my
network plaqces in windows explorer are hosted on.

I see my domain we created and also workgroup used, noticed 3 other
workgroup/domains listed.

no other department should setup a domain in our envirbnment.

How ever I cannot track the systems down, only see netbios name

Any ideas?

I had tried this before, it reponded with mac address and host name,
unfortunately this points to a printer, in fact if Itry any of the three
workgrouops/domains in question I get same respone once.

next time I try same command stated host not found.

Thanks for the reply
