Nbtstat is designed to help troubleshoot NetBIOS name resolution problems. When a network is functioning normally, NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) resolves NetBIOS names to IP addresses. It does this through several options for NetBIOS name resolution, including local cache lookup, WINS server query, broadcast, LMHOSTS lookup, Hosts lookup, and DNS server query.
The nbtstat command removes and corrects preloaded entries using a number of case-sensitive switches. The nbtstat - a <name > command performs a NetBIOS adapter status command on the computer name specified by < name> . The adapter status command returns the local NetBIOS name table for that computer as well as the MAC address of the adapter card. The nbtstat -A < IP address > command performs the same function using a target IP address rather than a name.
The nbtstat - c option shows the contents of the NetBIOS name cache, which contains NetBIOS name-to-IP address mappings.
nbtstat -n displays the names that have been registered locally on the system by NetBIOS applications such as the server and redirector.
The nbtstat -r command displays the count of all NetBIOS names resolved by broadcast and by querying a WINS server. The nbtstat -R command purges the name cache and reloads all #PRE entries from the LMHOSTS file. #PRE entries are the LMHOSTS name entries that are preloaded into the cache. For more information about the LMHOSTS file, see the appendix "LMHOSTS Files" in this book.
Nbtstat -RR sends name release packets to the WINS server and starts a refresh, thus re-registering all names with the name server without having to reboot. This is a new option in Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 4 as well as in Windows 2000.
You can use nbtstat -S to list the current NetBIOS sessions and their status, including statistics. Sample output looks like this:
C:\>nbtstat -S
Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [172.16.0.142] Scope Id: []
NetBIOS Connection Table
Local Name State In/Out Remote Host Input Output
------------------------------------------------------------------
TESTPC1 <00> Connected Out 172.16.210.25 6MB 5MB
TESTPC1 <00> Connected Out 172.16.3.1 108KB 116KB
TESTPC1 <00> Connected Out 172.16.3.20 299KB 19KB
TESTPC1 <00> Connected Out 172.16.3.4 324KB 19KB
TESTPC1 <03> Listening
Finally, nbtstat -s provides a similar set of session listings, but provides the remote computer names, rather than their IP addresses.
How do you open dos without opening windows?

How do you resizing the DOS Prompt in Windows 7?
Its a simple way to resizing the cmd prompt in Windows 7 for 32 bit operating systems.
Just open the cmd prompt by typing the text cmd on search bar on Start menu.
If you press Alt+Enter, that will notice an error that "This system doesn't support full screen mode"
I'm giving a solution here.
Right click on the Title bar of the cmd Prompt window and select the properties menu. It show tabs as Options, Font, Layout, Colors.
Select Layout tab.
Here deselect the Let system position window option. Then increase the width and height of the Window size option.
I am also giving you my default full screen setting.
Set Width as 133 and height as 42 in Window Size,
Set Width as 165 and height as 500 in Window buffer size,
Set Left as 0 and top as 3 in Window position.
Are you clear now?

What is the command to run windows explorer from the command line?
The command is: "start explorer.exe".
Is a MS-DOS a single tasking operating system?
Yes, but since it allows you to run software which utilises all of the processor you can run programs that makes it possible to multitask.
Windows 3.x, Novell NetWare and DOS extenders such as DOS4GW are some examples.
That might be called "running another OS on DOS".
Router#Disable
Router >
I don't know the second.
Update: Disable is the only command I believe. However, looking at an Instructors copy of the lab (for 11.5.1), it lists the answers as: exit and end. So I guess they meant to ask "which two commands may be used to leave global configuration and RETURN to privileged exec mode". Hopefully it's worded correctly on an exam!
What is the meaning of this command MK DIR?
It means make dir then you can change dir to the new dir and program or copy files to it.
How do you display the contents of a text file in command prompt?
DOS (Windows):
TYPE
Displays the contents of a file on the screen. If you use this command on a file which is not a text file, the display will be unintelligible. Use with "|MORE" to display the text on a page by page basis, and prevent it scrolling off the screen. "|" is a pipe character.
LINUX:
cat
less
this are commands (programs) that let you view text files, less is like cat, but if the files are so long that they don't fit on your screen,less automatically paginates the file. You use less by giving the file name as an argument to it:
less filename.txt
You use cat in the same way by giving the file name as an argument to it:
cat filename.txt
