Hi all,

I purchased 35 Netduino 3's for my new Home Automation class I plan to teach next Spring. However, I would like to rename each unit so they can be seen on the LAN using a NetBIOS name. I also need a way to be able to find the IP of each device using something like this:

IPHostEntry ipEntry = Dns.GetHostEntry(hostname);

I assigned each board a static IP and DNS points to the router.  I can see the boards in the Arp cache and can ping them just fine. One of the members suggested using NameService but I cannot find the namespace for that in the NetMF.

I appreciate your ideas.
