Find your fqdn with

example from work:
C:\Documents and Settings\CParman>echo %COMPUTERNAME%.%USERDNSDOMAIN%
CPARMAN-8DFCMF1.CORP

update:
%USERDNSDOMAIN% only works on a domain

So you can get it with the ipconfig /all output.

Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\CParman>ipconfig /all

Windows IP Configuration

        Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : cparman-8dfcmf1
        Primary Dns Suffix  . . . . . . . : CORP
Very much appreciated Kari and Parman.





Once, I saw an IT personnel using a command to show all the connected machines with a particular machine (the command is joined with identifying its IP address). I couldn’t remember the command he used.


All the best

I personally don't know any built in windows commands that can do that. But like I said before there are plenty of third party programs that can. He might of been using one of them.
