Description Artem S. Tashkinov 2007-02-28 20:34:46 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          GCC 4.1.2 i686 vanilla
OS:                Linux

Currently lisa daemon uses ping and nblookup requests to find hosts on LAN. That will be nice if Lisa could also search for hosts using arping requests. I ask for this because some hosts on my network are fully firewalled (due to security policy) yet they are visible via arping. As a system administrator I need to know whether they are alive or not.

I cannot find Lisa anywhere in KDE4. Is it still a part of KDE? If not then this bug report can be safely closed and invalidated.
