How can I find the NetBIOS/WINS name of a PC
You can use nbtstat
Example:
nbtstat -A x.x.x.x
Syntax
...
By IP address
NBTSTAT -A IP_address [options] [interval]
Key
...
-A(Adapter status) List the remote machine's name table given its
IP address
Source NBTSTAT.exe - Display protocol statistics and current TCP/IP connections using NBT (NetBIOS over TCP/IP)
Further reading
An A-Z Index of the Windows CMD command line is an excellent reference for all things Windows cmd line related.

This will try WINS and then DNS.
The NSLOOKUP command does similar, but only via DNS.
