So you would like to know someone's PC name, or their MAC address of their network card or the username that currently logged onto the PC? It can be very useful to have this info on someone. Their PC name can be their own name or company name. Their MAC address is the address of their network card, which is static, means that it can never change. Their username can also be useful if you would like to know this persons name. All of this can only be retrieved if the person has a network card installed on their PC.
In DOS prompt (Start, Run) type in " nbtstat -a IP"
EX : nbstat -a 196.35.24.15, it will show something like this :
Local Area Connection 3:Node IpAddress: [10.10.10.22] Scope Id: []
NetBIOS Remote Machine Name Table
Name Type Status---------------------------------------------PCNAME <00> UNIQUE RegisteredDOMAINNAME<00> GROUP RegisteredPCNAME<03> UNIQUE RegisteredPCNAME<20> UNIQUE RegisteredDOMAINNAME <1e> GROUP RegisteredUSERNAME <03> UNIQUE Registered
MAC Address = 00-22-AE-43-33-30
It will show you the PC name, domain name if it is connected to a domain and it will show the user name logged onto the PC. The MAC is static, meaning it never changes, useful for identifying someone. Your buddy attacks you, you check his IP and you do a "nbtstat" on him, and you gets his MAC address. So now if you check on his PC, and see he has got the same MAC address you know it was him attacking you.
