Finding PCs on a linux network

Just installed Kubuntu on my Work PC, Server is linux, dev server is linux, 3 other PCs are different versions of Windows.

sudo nmap -O ipaddress/24

This will list all ips alive and their ports and guess the OS.

there is a version of Nmap available for Windows, having not used it though, I cannot give any recommendations. I do know that the windows machine you use to run Nmap will NOT show up in your results due to loop back issues. Other than that I assume its just as awesome as it is in Linux.
