scan for a MAC address? 

ping all the addresses in the range and then 

  /usr/sbin/arp -n |grep -i that_mac_addr

The scanning part could be done using something like: 

  nmap -sP 192.168.1-5.*

Another simple trick (assuming a mostly windows network) is to simply
ping to the broadcast address. Linux-es and macs tend to respond to
those pings and so are most devices. Windows tend to ignore those pings.
