hi list !
i would like to be able to list all active, OS X, Macs on my local
network.
I'm pretty sure a trick with rendezVous is possible, but how ?
Note that i *do not* want to install a software on each machine (to
make a rdv service visible), but to find all guenine OS X machine
remotely... without any modification...
is there a particular RendezVous service, common to all OS X machines ?
(something like presence_service, started at launch...)
i have an idea using "arp -a" in command line, but this will return me
all machines on the network (PCs, airport base etc !). Is there a way
to know if the machine at IP@ XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is specifically a Mac ?
(an OS X Mac...)
i thought using NSHost to find the name of a machine from its IP @.
thanks for your ideas !
