Hi all,

I am trying to write a little script in python to read my firewall 
logs.  The source is logged as an IP address.  But I would like that IP 
converted into the windows computer name.  I found the windows utility 
NBTSTAT -A <ip>  but it requires the computer I am looking up to be 
turned on.  I tried NBTSTAT -c  to list the cached name lookups but 
they expire.

Does anyone have a better suggestion then NBTSTAT?

Thanks,

Troy Sorzano
