Extracting Windows name from the registry

Subject: Extracting Windows name from the registry
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 16:08:25 +0000 
Hi,

Our set up is Nesus 3.0.4 running on a Windows 2000 SP4 machine.

I have an urgent need to check on Windows systems on our network as our Wins
and DNS are "up the swanny" ... nice huh?

I found an entry in the Nessus archives for extracting the name of a Windows
machine out of its registry.  I have created an .nasl file and copied it
into my plugins\scripts directory which contains all the other .nasl files.
Nessus has been restarted and yet this plugin does not appear under any of
the "Families" even though it has been set "Windows".  In case this plugin
has a scripting issue has anyone got a script that I could have?

I am starting to pull my hair out - and being 43, my hair doesn't need any
help ...... :-)
