You could use a program called retina security scanner (download a trial
version from http://www.eeye.com/html/Products/Retina/Download.html) or GFI
LanGuard at http://www.gfi.com/downloads/downloads.asp?pid=8&vid=1&lid=1.
These will allow you to get more information such as users, service packs,
last time users logged in, vulnerability and so on. This will help you
narrow it down. You also can get registry information believe it or not.

Subject: OT finding station trying to become MasterBrowser [7:58701]


I don't think there's any answer to this, but I thought I would check. How
can I find the physical location of a system if I know the following:
 
NetBIOS name, IP address, MAC Address, and the Domain it is attached too.

I have a system that is trying to become the Master Browser and I've
discovered all of the above information. The problem is, it's a large flat
network, so the IP address comes from a huge pool and doesn't help identify
a network segment. The NetBIOS name isn't helpful and the vendor code in the
MAC address is shared by almost all the systems.

Any utilities that you know of that could help find this station?

It's a city-wide school system and driving around from school to school
isn't practical, although it is a rather small city... :-)

Any info would be great. Thanks.

Priscilla
