We are using the netbios_name_get.nasl plugin as part of our Windows scans.  
One of the valuable features is that it returns the MAC address, which makes 
it easy for our techs to find the PCs that have the problem we are otherwise 
looking for.  Sometimes, though, it doesn't get the MAC address or the other 
system information.  I've ruled out cases like it being Windows 9x and the PC 
not listening on the ports.  Are there any other factores that may keep this 
query from being successful?

Thanks,
Beirne
