Hi all,

it is not possible to resolve a ip to a netbios name through the ping -a
command. In Windows 2000 Pro and Server 2003 it is working !!

Any ideas ??

===========================================
Have you enabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP on the XP computer?
Control Panel | Network Connections
Go to Properties of appropriate connection
Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
Click on the Properties button
Click on the Advanced button
Click on the Wins tab
Select Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP
OK
OK
Close
Close Network Connections
Try ping -a
HTH
===========================================
