LISa is intended to provide a kind of “network neighborhood”, but only relying on the TCP/IP protocol stack, no smb or whatever.
It is completely independent from KDE/Qt™.
The list of running hosts is provided via TCP port 7741.
LISa supports two ways of finding hosts:
You give LISa a range of IP addresses, then LISa will send ICMP echo requests to all given IP addresses, and wait for the answers.
You can tell LISa to execute nmblookup
"*
. The command line tool
nmblookup must be installed from the Samba package.
nmblookup "*"
sends a broadcast to
the attached networks, and all hosts running SMB
services will answer this broadcast.
