>>IP Address is pretty much all you have access to without specific NT rights to that machine. You can do a lookup to get the machine name, but that doesn't do a troubleshooter much good. A port scanner will get you a little further regarding open holes to the internet, but anything beyond that would be hacking.

This will indeed be on an Intranet. How would you see going about implementing this idea?
