Install a network mapping utility

The network diagnostic utility nmap compiles perfectly on OS X 10.1.4.

[Editor's note: If you have fink installed, you can simply do a "sudo fink install nmap" to get it up and running. nmap is a very powerful tool for finding open ports on your network, amongst other features. Of course, as with some of the other tools covered on macosxhints, it could be put to use in a malicious manner. Use it wisely to help secure your own network.]
