[c-nsp] Finding Ip of Stanalone Machine.

[tusker keg]

howdy

do a x-over connection from u'r pc/laptop and  do a ping to the all 1
broadcast

 ping -b 255.255.255.255          ( from a *nix) machine

you should be able to get a response back, this is on assumption that the pc
will respond to a ping
sent to  the broadcast address

regards
