    Hi Lewis,

    Not sure about the domain side of things. It's been a decade since I worked with domains/active directory and a lot has changed over the years. With most of my machines now converted to Linux, I'm going to find it difficult to test a domain scenario.

    However, based on past experience, I don't see why being a member of a domain would make a lot of difference. The machine could be locked down by policy, but (and I could be forgetting something here), I don't think there is anything there that would cause this type of behavior.

    I got a couple of friends to test the script and it worked fine for them. I'll see if I can track down some old contacts that are on a domain and see it they can test it for me too.

    Just out of curiosity, you haven't named the batch file ping.bat or nbtstat.bat have you (or ping.cmd/nbtstat.cmd).. That will cause a mess

    calling a batch file by the same name it contains a command for would cause it to loop. So nbtstat.bat would simply keep calling nbtstat.bat from within the batch file.

    Have fun.
