Help: Net send to unidentified station in ad-hoc mode

I was in a room with my laptop and it automatically connected to
another computer. I wanted to know who had connected to me. How can I
net send to another wireless station, or more specifically, how can I
see the other computers in an ad-hoc network if they are not using the
same "workgroup"? Is there a way to send out a "hello world" command
in ad-hoc, getting responses from all connected systems?
Thanks

net^send^*^Hello world <enter>

( ^ = space )

will send the message "Hello world" to the user group that YOU are on/in

Some firewalls will stop this, and/or if the service has been stopped on a
reciving computer.

To See others arround you, if your card is compatable (try to find out)
download Netstumbler from www.netstumbler.com

There is slightly more to it than that though! Just because YOU connected to
another network, does not mean someone connected to you (rumaging about with
your shares!)
