 >ping windows_machine_name
	I personal use dnsmasq with dhcp, search freshmeat.net.  It's almost a 
dynamic dns solution, but with alot less head archs ( it took me a long 
time to get dhcp+bind to do ddns )

	The only thing that is a little differant, is you will have to use the 
full hostname or client with a period on the end ...

	ping client.domain
or
	ping client.

	Very quick, very light, very nice.
