ping -a question

$

Normally, when I ping with the "-a" option, I get "Pinging Workstation [IP address]" as the first line of response.  For some reason, I have a workstation that shows the domain rather than the workstation in the first line of response.  I can successfully ping the workstation by name.  Also, nslookup of the workstation successfully displays the correct IP address.  I have also deleted and re-added the DNS entry associated with this workstation, but ping -a still shows the domain in the first return line.  Is there a way to change the pinging name that is returned by the first line of ping -a?
