how to retrieve list of ip's and mac addresses from DHCP server

I need a way either using active directory or otherwise in VB .NET (API's
are fine) to retrieve the list of IP addresses and MAC addressses from our
DHCP server here. I specifically need to do this because I am looking for
machine's that are in standby so a ping sweep or otherwise that would
generate ARP entries will not do.

Anyone have a clue for me?

Thanks,
Scott Emick

Check the System.DirectoryServices namespace.

The link below should also help!
