Nah, it's got nothing to do with my memory. I actually saved that email as a memoir of one of the few times I was able to come up with the answer ;-) At the time we provided a function to parse the output from the 'nbtstat' command (ie nbtstat -a ipAddress). Come to think of it 'nslookup' might also have worked on 3.x.
But now, on 4.1, the machine name can be obtained with the SYSTEM(52) function.
