Determining the IP Address of a Workstation in Windows Domain/Workgroup

[v***@yahoo.com]

All --

Hello !

Had a co-worker leave abruptly and on occasion of late, I'm seeing
domains/workgroups within my Microsoft Windows Network browse that
never used to be. And I'm wary they may be associated with an
unwanted machine on my network. Despite the security precautions I
took to insure lockout.

My question :
How do you determine the IP address for a workstation within a domain
or workgroup ?

Whenever I click on the workgroup or domain, the message is that I
don't have permission to access.

Any hints on how to troubleshoot with Microsoft or other tools would
be greatly appreciated !

Try this - no install needed:

Have used both without problems.

Also "scanline" (command line tool) here:
