I have a comment about Getting
Network Neighborhood to recognize newly attached computers:
Newly networked computers need to use arp to discover it's neighbors. It will use
arp calls directed toward any other NIC that will respond and wait for that response
using wildcards. If you right-click network neighborhood and do a find computer and
enter the computer name it will do a directed search using arp, NetBios, etc and
will update the arp cache in a much shorter time.
