I need a command that I can call in the following manner:
$ unknown_command host_on_my_network
192.168.20.119
$

At least here on my network, neither nslookup nor host work, although they
will go outside of my network and work just fine.  Ping manages to find
local computers in the way that I am looking for.  Should I just pass ping
though some filter?
