Re: What Device is Using an IP Address

Sorry, don't know about the Windows side. We're running NetWare.

Roger,

Thanks. I have seen references to netstat in the forums, but never used
it or even wondered what it was for.

And, of course, it did the job from the System i side. Is there,
though, a way to determine what device is using each ip address from the
Windows server side? All of our ip addresses are assigned by DHCP (is
that right?) from, in our case, the Windows 2003 server. Not every ip
address will be used by the System i. For example, we have a time clock
in our warehouse that has an ip address that is polled regularly.

It would, also, be nice to know what ip addresses are available. For
example, an exception to the DHCP assignment are our System i's, which
we assign via CFGTCP to each i.

Thanks.

Jerry,

Try this. I know it works for telnet jobs.
netstat *cnn
find the IP
Option 5 - Display details
F8 - display jobs

I saw the following message in the System i History this morning: User
ADMIN from client 10.0.0.146 connected to job 380815/QUSER/QZDASOINIT.

How do I find out what device is 146? Besides, that is, going around
and running ipcong on every device in the building?
