What NETBIOS Is The Machine On?

Windows ServerI was recently doing some work for a client installing some software and realised that I didn’t know what their NETBIOS was and the application didn’t have a lookup option for the service account so I needed to type the domain and username directly. The IT people I was working with were in a meeting and not going to be available for a while so I couldn’t ask.

I did some checking around and found a command which can be run to get the NETBIOS:

nbtstat -n

There may be other ways of doing this and I’d be interested in hearing about them.

What should we write about next?
