how to check DNS Hostname & NetBIOS name for a PC match

Hi,

we have a couple of issues where mismatched NetBIOS & DNS Hostnames on machines are affecting a variety of things including SMS, SCCM activities + Sophos Deployments

We are seeking a script to check & confirm the names are mismatched, issue a nbtstat -RR, & export the NetBIOS & DNS Host names to a file..
We are then intending to forward this file to our "Hostmaster" who administers our DNS to alter DNS names to match the NetBIOS names.

Has anyone done this or parts of this & can share their work with me please..

Ooops I just realised I'd need to also check/confirm that the machine isn't disabled in Active Directory ...
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
