Lanalyzer understands ip in that it can decode it. Once you decode it you
can sometimes read the host name from the packet, depends on what was sent,
ugly but better than nothing. Big Red decided not to supply any ip - host
name translation since netware does ipx and it's only you funny unix guys
that talk ip. I have used Lanalyzer with limited success. still waiting for
my Network General to get approved.
