Net::NBName

DESCRIPTION

Net::NBName is a class that allows you to perform simple NetBIOS Name Service Requests in your Perl code. It performs these NetBIOS operations over TCP/IP using Perl's built-in socket support.

I've currently implemented two NBNS requests: the node status request and the name query request. The node status request can be used to query the NetBIOS name table of a remote host; the name query request can be used to establish the ip address of a NetBIOS name.

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

DEPENDENCIES

This module requires only the standard Socket module.
