Hi All,I have a Windows program http://sourceforge.net/projects/autoscan/ that will find all the MAC address on a Ethernet. Last time I used it, it found stuff on 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.88.0/24. Helped me fix everything so they were on the same network. There is a Linux tarball for autoscan, but I can not find an RPM for it. And, the tarball has no spec file in it. I could really use this functionality on Linux. As far as I can tell, nmap will only locate stuff on the current network, not everything on the Ethernet. Any idea how to do this with nmap or similar? I would really like to use nmap, if I could. I have tried "overlook fing", but it only finds stuff on the current network. Many thanks, -T
It's a slightly different approach, but I use arpwatch to passively monitor arp activity on the network. It creates a log of discovered MAC addresses and IPs in /var/lib/arpwatch/arp.dat. It can be configured to send email alerts when it finds IPs that don't match the local subnet (see "bogon").
