http://forums.opensuse.org – I have a Suse 11.2 machine named "susepc" on a network with some other windows machines. From the Suse 11.2 machine, I try ping winpc where winpc is the name of a windows machine on the LAN but the name resolves to an odd ip address: PING winpc.HOMENET (72.215.225.9) (Distributions)
