Is there a way to query a DHCP server to get a list of MAC addresses?

Q: Is there a way to query a DHCP server to get a list of MAC addresses?

I would like to do this so that I can wake everyone up when I want to do
WSUS updates weekly. I can manually create/update the list of MAC
addresses but that is quite time consuming as you can imagine. Since they
are listed in DHCP, it should be a simple process to grab a hold of them
with a script.

Thanks

you might take a look at DHCPObj.dll
from the Windows 2000 RK.

if you need an example I have one at work (2morrow)

gr /\/\o\/\/

on W2K3 you can consider using Netsh

netsh dhcp server export

hmm, I used

netsh dhcp server export c:\me.txt all

and it wrote some kind of binary code (not ASCII text) to the file. I
looked at the help to get the syntax correct but it says nothing about
plain text or anything like that. This looks like it would do what I need
it to do though.

Correction to my last post:

If I use the following command:

netsh dhcp server dump all >mac.txt

I get this: (which looks like everything but what I need)

Does this command show you what you want?
(Replace {dhcpservername} with the NetBIOS name of your DHCP Server - you
can use the IP too)

for /f "tokens=1" %a in ('netsh dhcp server \\{dhcpservername} show scope^|find
/i "Active"') do netsh dhcp server \\{dhcpservername} scope %a show clients&netsh
dhcp server \\{dhcpservername} scope %a show clientsv5

Awesome man, thanks a bunch. That is exactly what I need.

glad it worked out, I could not check the syntax @ home.

in a check at work, I noticed that I did switch to DHCPCMD from the DLL.

for the ones with 2000 :
this works like this.

DHCPCMD.EXE <dhcpserver> enumclients <scope> -v
