However, apparently the most recent smbclient in Sid no longer shows the IP address. How can I determine the IP address of "somePC" ("smbclient -L" still finds the PC; it just doesn't report the IP address anymore).

Did you try plain old "nmblookup PCname" ? That's the standard usage, no

I had to query the DNS server directly:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/westk> nmblookup -U <dns server address> -R "alum03"
querying alum03 on <dns server address>
xxx.yyy.zzz.3 alum03<00>
