Polling a subnet for machine names?

[ddrueding]

Hi.

I'm looking for a tool that will ping all the IPs in a subnet and return machine names if possible. Any suggestions?

I haven't tried this, but what about something like this.

From windows or unix?
Because if it was unix I think I would do something like
for i in 1 to 255
do
ping 192.168.0.$i | grep '.com'
done

But do you really want the ping result or just and ip to name lookup?
Is that nslookup?

Handruin's link above let me to another program by the same people; AdvancedIP Scanner 1.5

Thanks guys.
