I have a workgroup with dynamic ip addresses assigned through the router. There are 10 workstations and 2 printers connected on this network through a Netgear switch. All the systems are running on XP(sp2).
How can I view all the computers along with their name and ip addresses connected on the network? Is there any command or software which can display all the ip addresses and connected computers and printers?

You could go into your router management interface (usually HTTP for small routers) and view the connected clients (will usually show IP address and hostname if acting as DNS/ DHCP).
You could also look at LanSpy http://lantricks.com/lanspy/ to scan the local subnet. This will show you what hosts are active on your network segment and most likely resolve what they are and open ports/ services.
Regards.
