[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] NetBIOS questin

martin@sunc5.cs.uiuc.edu (RoCCo mArtIn) (04/22/91)

Could someone please describe what is needed to successfully run a find
name command in netbios?  I am currently using version 2.3.  The book 
"C Programmer's Guide to NeTBIOS" makes mention of the find name command, 
but gives no syntax, nor what to expect.

I have been able to successfully call findname, but I can't for the life of
me figure out how to interpret the data returned.  The books I have don't
give a structure that fits the one returned, and the data isn't anything
obvious (like names or dotted hex addresses).  Please fill me in if you
know anything about this command!

					Thanks,
					- Rocco

P.S.  Please respond by email.  If there is any interest, I can post a
summary later.
