Re: [opensuse] How to find list of hosts on local subnet?

I generally do something like this:

for host in 10.1.0.{1..254}; do fping $host; done


Thanks,
James

Guys,

What would I use to get a list of hosts on the local subnet aside from
dumping the forward zone in bind or doing a ping -c .1 subnet.1-254? I
want to find something I can call from a script to return the list to
either a single variable or an array.

I'm open to anything, but would prefer a BASH or c solution.

The arp variations already suggested are probably enough, but if you're
on the dhcp machine, you could take a look at the dhcp lease file.
(assuming you already know about the "fixed" hosts).
