Hi,

Nice work, I love this feature !

Did I miss something cause I not able to get the Host Name of any of the devices detected by the scanner ?

Thanks.

thanks! hostnames are provided by nmap through your dns server. you might need to check if your dns server supports it.

Same issue. Unfortunately, the provided article wasn't very helpful. My hostnames are populated in the local network, so why network scanner can pull this information?

it might be network specific issue, like firewall.
