HI
I am new to python and am having trouble coming up with a script that
idenifies all the live hosts on my network.
thanks Hunter
I've done this in the past with the great help of nmap:
# nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/23
this will find hosts "alive" from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.254
From python, you can use it by saving it's output to a file and then
reading or with the help of os.popen.
In this case, "alive" means that the hosts with the ip being analyzed
responds to ARPs. see the manpage for nmap.
Matias.
