I've lost a machine.. literally _lost!

It responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is.

Suggestions?

TiVo or other DVR unit?, a machine with 2 nics (or set to use 2 IPs), a repeater, household control device, even a TV?

Do you keep a list of mac addresses or have a scan utility that will report them? Maybe 2 IPs having the same mac address?

BTW, you said it responded to pings but not how you were addressing it. BTW, if you don't know where/what it is, how did you find it? Maybe it responded to a broadcast or something?

Anyway, you are much more likely to figure it out than I so these thoughts are really just food for your thoughts. :)
