.SH "DESCRIPTION" 
.PP 
This manual page documents briefly the 
\fBnbtscan\fR command. 
.PP 
This manual page was written for the \fBDebian GNU/Linux\fP distribution 
because the original program does not have a manual page. 
 
.PP 
\fBnbtscan\fR  
is a program for scanning IP networks for NetBIOS name 
information. It sends NetBIOS status query to each address in 
supplied range and lists received information in human 
readable form. For each responded host it lists IP address, 
NetBIOS computer name, logged-in user name and MAC address 
(such as Ethernet). 
 
.SH "OPTIONS" 
.PP 
A summary of options is included below. 
.IP "\fB-v\fP         " 10 
Verbose output. Print all names received from each host. 
.IP "\fB-d\fP         " 10 
Dump packets. Print whole packet contents. Cannot be used with \-v, \-s or \-h options. 
.IP "\fB-e\fP         " 10 
Format output in /etc/hosts format. 
.IP "\fB-l\fP         " 10 
Format output in lmhosts format. Cannot be used with \-v, \-s or 
\-h options. 
.IP "\fB-t \fP\fItimeout\fR         " 10 
Wait timeout seconds for response. Default 1. 
.IP "\fB-b \fP\fIbandwidth\fR         " 10 
Output throttling. Slow down output so that it uses no more that 
bandwidth bps.  Useful on slow links, so that ougoing queries don't get 
dropped. 
.IP "\fB-r\fP         " 10 
Use local port 137 for scans. Win95 boxes respond to this only.  You need to be root to use this option. 
.IP "\fB-q\fP         " 10 
Suppress banners and error messages. 
.IP "\fB-s \fP\fIseparator\fR         " 10 
Script-friendly output. Don't print column and record headers, separate fields with separator. 
.IP "\fB-h\fP         " 10 
Print human-readble names for services.  Can only be used with \-v option. 
.IP "\fB-m \fP\fIretransmits\fR         " 10 
Number of retransmits. Default 0. 
.IP "\fB-f \fP\fIfilename\fR         " 10 
Take IP addresses to scan from file "filename" 
.IP "\fIscan_range\fR         " 10 
What to scan. Can either be single IP like 192.168.1.1 or 
range of addresses in one of two forms: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xx or 
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx-xxx.
