The problem with atlookup is that you only find appletalk devices, and you
can get multiple hits from the same machine, i.e....

pantherservertest:AFPServer
pantherservertest:Darwin

It's not just going to send you back computers...

HP Color LaserJet 45502:HP Zoner Responder
HP Color LaserJet 45502:SNMP Agent
HP Color LaserJet 45502:LaserWriter
HP Color LaserJet 45502:HP LaserJet

It's not just going to send you back Macs...

RISTEST:AFPServer (This is a Quantum Snap Server)

It's not going to show you macs that aren't running AppleTalk or AFP/AT,

And it will show you non-rendezvous nodes, such as that Snap Server, or my
Windows servers.

Atlookup is deisigned to find Appletalk nodes on an AppleTalk network.

I mean, if you want to find EVERYTHING, ping the broadcast address and then
search your ARP tables. But I don't know how useful that info will be.
