Hi all,

I am messing around with the python socket package at the moment. I wrote this very simple script to display the hostnames of all computers in a certain subnet.

...
count = 12
while count < 255:
print getfqdn("10.20.195." + str(count)) + "\t\t is active"
count = count + 1

The problem is it slows down once it hits unallocated IP addresses. How can I check that a static ip is allocated first?

Cheers in advance for your help.
