For a nice GUI solution install the avahi-utils-gtk package and run "/usr/bin/avahi-discover-standalone". This works very well on home networks where things like printers, DVRs, TiVOs, etc... almost always will show up.
I see nothing.

My laptop, the DTV and the router, do not appear. It lists open ports as one entry per machine, it seems. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
