A limitation of just a prefix &quot;prefixxyz&quot; is really too broad, and I'm quite certain that the script can't handle it.<br />
But if your list of machines is just a number after the prefix (like in your examples &quot;prefixxyz01&quot;,&quot;prefixxyz02<wbr />&quot;, etc.), then you could easily generate this list of machines beforehand and supply that list to the script's -computername parameter.<br />
For example:<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-42507090-1">$comps = 0..99 | % { &quot;{0:00}&quot; -f $_ }
.\psnmap.ps1 -computername $comps</code></pre>

David's solution is the way to go when you have a source (like ActiveDirectory) that will have all your potential hosts. &nbsp;If you were in a peer-to-peer situation, or scanning hosts which you couldn't pull their names from a masterlist, then I think mine is the way to go.

psnmap for powershell and scan to computername prefixxyz so it would scan<br />
prefixxyz01<br />
prefixxyz02<br />

Powershell: scan for computername prefix xyz
