Re: How to get info about other machines on local network



The only thing I can think of is, if you can assume a reasonably short range for the local IP's (such as: 10.0.1.2 to 10.0.1.128), to ping them all in a loop - but it'll be long:

do shell script "ping -t 1 " & theIP -- 1 second per address approx.

You can build list the machines' IPs (those for which the line above doesn't fail). Now, figuring out which is which would probably require connecting with ssh, that is, attempting to authenticate into each machine with all the possible user ids/passwords - not a cool thing either.

Hi everyone,
Since ip numbers in our local network are changing frequently I want to find out via applescript which IP number is used by which machine.


Is this possible or has somebody done this before?

Greetings, Ronald
