c# - Getting computer names from my network places

Question

I was wondering if there is a way to get all the computer names that show up in my network places using C#.

Answer 1

This works, but it takes a while. :/

public List<String> ListNetworkComputers()
{
    List<String> _ComputerNames = new List<String>();
    String _ComputerSchema = "Computer";
    System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry _WinNTDirectoryEntries = new System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("WinNT:");
    foreach (System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry _AvailDomains in _WinNTDirectoryEntries.Children) {
        foreach (System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry _PCNameEntry in _AvailDomains.Children) {
            if (_PCNameEntry.SchemaClassName.ToLower().Contains(_ComputerSchema.ToLower())) {
            _ComputerNames.Add(_PCNameEntry.Name);
            }
        }
    }
    return _ComputerNames;
}
