I'm working on a custom PERL script here to do some reporting on Internet usage, etc. However, I'm running into a minor problem.
I can monitor Internet usage by IP address; however, we're using DHCP here and IP addresses might change for the systems on my internal net. The other issue is that a report full of IP addresses isn't as easy to read as one that could have the NetBIOS names in their place. A real drastic solution I have to this is to use PERL to access the WINS database stored on my NT Server to map IP's and NetBIOS names, but I'm thinking that there's *got* to be an easier way. If you have any suggestions or clues or know of any docs, faqs, howtos that might help me out, please let me know. Much appreciated.
