NBSTAT in Windows 10
« on: May 25, 2016, 10:03:06 AM »
Hi All,
I have Win 10 enterprise 64 bit. I am also an admin on the machine. I opened a command prompt as an admin and tried to run NBSTAT The machine says no such command or something like that. Has win 10 got rid of this command?

I have an IP and need to know the machine name. I was using NBSTAT to get the name. Any ideas?

Thanks

Nbtstat is a diagnostic tool for NetBIOS over TCP/IP. It is included in several versions of Microsoft Windows. Its primary design is to help troubleshoot NetBIOS name resolution problems.

Ok...it was a typo! My bad.

Got my script to work once I put in the right stuff.

Thanks!

Just my two cents.
If you put nbstat into a Google search, Google will then say,  "Showing results for nbtstat".
Amazing how Google reads our minds.
