NBTscan

NBTscan - scan networks for NetBIOS name information

Help this project

NBTscan needs your help. If you are a programmer and if you want to help a nice project, this is your opportunity.

NBTscan was imported from some tarballs, the original homepage and developers are inactive. After this, all patches found in the Debian project and other places for this program were applied. All initial work was registered in the ChangeLog file (version 1.6 and later releases). NBTscan is being packaged in the Debian project.

If you are interested to help NBTscan, read the CONTRIBUTING.md file.

What is NBTscan?

NBTscan is a program for scanning IP networks for NetBIOS name information. It sends NetBIOS status queries to each address in the supplied range and lists received information in human-readable form. For each responding host it lists IP address, NetBIOS computer name, logged-in user name and MAC address (such as Ethernet).

Build and Install

To build and install, run the following commands:

$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
# make install

To return to the original source code, you can use $ make distclean.

On Debian systems, you can use # apt install nbtscan.
