I have a few computers on my LAN, and I was wondering if there was a way to get the IP addresses off of them without having to actually be in front of them typing "ipconfig".

It depends upon how your computers are connected. If they are connected via a router, some routers have software that allows you to view all connections to the router. The IP address is usually part of the display.

If you know the names of the computers you can do this.
Start -> Run -> cmd -> OK
In the DOS window that pops up type:
ping COMUPTER_NAME
Changing COMPUTER_NAME to the name of the computer you want the IP address of.
Also you might just try going to My Network Places -> View Workgroup computers, that is to get the computer names and then use ping.

-Look@LAN
-NetCrunch

Snag a copy of Languard Network Security Scanner. http://www.languard.com
The timed trial does still provide basic network scanning of a class C network once it times out.
Or, just look at the active leases on your DHCP server.
