Presuming you're on the same LAN, and the desktop is not running Windows (which does not respond to the broadcast address): ping -b 192.168.0.255 (substitute with your broadcast address) /sbin/arp -a | grep 00:10:00:FF:FF:FF (substitute with the MAC address of the desktop) Failing that, you can watch network traffic and hope the desktop machine generates some traffic: tcpdump -v ether host 00:10:00:FF:FF:FF - Dan This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
