Hello,

I am currently writing a batch file that fully automates window's 7 msg.exe on my Local Area Network (LAN)

How can I, using nslookup, ping or similar, find the ip address of a computer on my local network and forward only the IP address i.e. 10.0.0.1 on to another command i.e.

nslookup gh0stm0nkeys | find "the IP Address of the desired PC" | another command here

where

nslookup gh0stm0nkeys - finds the ip
| find "the IP Address of the desired PC" - forwards the results to the "find" command, which then finds the IP of the computer
| another command here - i.e. i would save the results (which would only be the IP address) as a text file.

Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.

If I am not mistaken, it displays the IP on the screen after it has been found, so:

Echo type the IP address here
set /p IP=
set num=0
:a
set /a num=%num%+1
IF EXIST IP%num%.txt goto a
echo %IP% > "IP%num%.txt

This will make a text file containing the text that you entered. The extra bits will ensure that it will not make two of the same files and give an error message.

Sorry i can only answer the half of your question-'How can I find an ip of a computer on my LAN'. Try to use the IP-MAC Scanner can you get all ip addresses of the computers on your local network(both wire and wireless).
Sorry for my bad english.
