You can visit this site: <http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/wxpjoind.html> for a walkthrough. If that doesn’t work, try: Hooking the computers up [...]

You may want to try “WhatsUp GOLD,” “LANSurveyor,” or “10-Strike LANState.” I have personally done all of my network mapping in Visio (a painful method). And rendered the information in 3D in TurboCAD.
