+findsmb \- list info about machines that respond to SMB name queries on a subnet
+.PP
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.PP
+\fBfindsmb\fP [subnet broadcast address]
+.PP
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This perl script is part of the \fBSamba\fP suite\&.
+.PP
+\fBfindsmb\fP is a perl script that prints out several pieces
+of information about machines on a subnet that respond to SMB
+name query requests\&.
+It uses \fBnmblookup\fP and
+\fBsmbclient\fP to obtain this information\&.
+.PP
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+.IP
+.IP "\fBsubnet broadcast address\fP"
+Without this option, \fBfindsmb\fP
+will probe the subnet of the machine where \fBfindsmb\fP is run\&.
+This value is passed to \fBnmblookup\fP as part of the \fB-B\fP
+option
+.IP
+.PP
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+The output of \fBfindsmb\fP lists the following information for all
+machines that respond to the initial \fBnmblookup\fP for any name:
+IP address, NetBIOS name, Workgroup name, operating system, and
+SMB server version\&.
+.PP
+There will be a "+" in front of the workgroup name for machines that are
+local master browsers for that workgroup\&. There will be an "*" in front
+of the workgroup name for machines that are the domain master browser for
+that workgroup\&. Machines that are running Windows, Windows 95 or Windows 98
+will not show any information about the operating system or server version\&.
+.PP
+The command must be run on a system without
+\fBnmbd\fP running\&. If \fBnmbd\fP is running on the system, you will only
+get the IP address and the DNS name of the machine\&. To get proper responses
+from Windows 95 and Windows 98 machines, the command must be run as root\&.
+.PP
+For example running:
+.PP
+\f(CWfindsmb\fP
+.PP
+on a machine without \fBnmbd\fP running would yield output similar
+to the following
+.PP
