How can I find out the hostnames of other computers in the same local network?
In my local wifi, I can find out the IP and MAC of another computer which also runs Lubuntu, and whose hostname is known to me.
$ sudo arp-scan olive
[sudo] password for t:
Interface: wlx801f02b5c389, datalink type: EN10MB (Ethernet)
Starting arp-scan 1.9 with 1 hosts (http://www.nta-monitor.com/tools/arp-scan/)
192.168.1.198 aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff Liteon Technology Corporation
1 packets received by filter, 0 packets dropped by kernel
Ending arp-scan 1.9: 1 hosts scanned in 1.449 seconds (0.69 hosts/sec). 1 responded
There are other computers in the same local wifi network, which most likely run Windows and whose hostnames I don't know.
Can I find out their hostnames from my computer? arp-scan -l doesn't show that information.
Thanks.
