netstat is a TCP/IP utility, it has nothing to do with net bios. But anyway, if you want to get the machine name: my $localhost=Win32::NodeName(); # Get the name of the local computer and store it in $localhost.
Else, you will have to query either the network WINS of the LMhosts file, depending on how you are doing name lookup for netbios.
