Dear all,
Can anyone please tell me if there is any way to find the names of all the computers in a LAN through Java API.
Actually I have to make a customized NetSend program for which I have to gather all the computer names in a LAN.
Thanks

I'm thinking you might have to resort to performing a "Runtime.exec()" of the "net view" windows command and parse the results to get the computer names (assuming your on windows platform).
