RE: How to find a changing IP on ethernet network

If it's a windows client then use nbtstat -a <ip>.  This should tell you
enough about the rogue machine to identify it including its name, MAC
address etc.

Hello. I have a client with a simple Ethernet network with HUB's 
connecting and there is one person that is changing it's IP and creating 
conflicts. What would you do to track down that person? i mean, to find 
who does that?

Thanks!

Ivan Hernandez
