Crack Password Hashes in OS X Lion This guide details the surprisingly simple process to crack passwords in Mac OS X Lion. This is a Lion sequel to our extremely popular password cracking guide for Snow Leopard, Leopard and Tiger. Analysis tool pack vba for mac. Aircrack-ng is one of the best password cracking tools that hackers use to bump their annoying neighbors off their own Wi-Fi. For Mac OS X, DaveGrohl is an open source password cracking tool.

Is there a Mac/Unix commands that lets you see the local network in terms of machines/IP addresses? If there's something on the Mac that is gui-based that would be great too.

Try IP Scanner 2.5 for OS X. http://10base-t.com/ Looking for others, but that's the only real one I've found for OS X.

ping
the broadcast address (the broadcast address is printed as part of the output to ifconfig en0
)The hosts answering are on your local network. (You may also try
guakaarp -a
but that only keeps track of recently contacted hosts so you may want to run it after the broadcast.)Dos Command For Network Discovery

There is a program called Bonjour Browser that will list well known services that have registered on your local network. I believe that most Macs have one or more registered protocols by default.

The only way to reliably do this is to scan the network using ping sweeps and similar techniques looking for open ports etc on various addresses. You can do that with nmap which is available for OS X. See http://www.netadmintools.com/art406.html for an example.
EDIT: Just to clarify, as diciu pointed out, you can usually ping the broadcast address and/or use your arp cache as well. This will probably work for most home networks where directed broadcast is allowed.
If not, then you would need to run a ping sweep with a tool like nmap to individually check each address for an available host. Many network discovery/scanning tools can check for more than just ping, looking for listening ports, SNMP, etc. as well.

in the days of tiger (10.4) every mac broadcast a 'presence' service on bonjour, which made finding macintoshes on the network a snap. alas, no more..

You can use Nmap but that seems to be a bit much for your stated goals.
EDIT: oops. netstat doesn't do what I thought.

angry IP scanner for a no mus - no fuss IP scanner with basic port scanning.NMap and Zenmap for the big power scans.I actually use both together, as nmap can get easily sidetracked by certain reverse proxy boxes.

You can use netdiscover on Mac OS, which is based on ARP packets. It will send ARP requests and scan the response.
For example, run netdiscover command
shaochuancsshaochuancssudo netdiscover -i en0 -r 10.106.0.0/16
in my local network would bring the following result:9,40733 gold badges2424 silver badges4242 bronze badges

Here are 9 tools that provide important details on known and unknown aspects of your Wi-Fi network. Each of these tools gives you the basic wireless details: SSIDs, signal strength, channels, MAC addresses and security status. Some can even reveal “hidden” or non-broadcasted SSIDs, display the noise levels, or display statistics on successful and failed packets of your wireless connection. Two of the tools include Wi-Fi password cracking tools as well, useful for educational or penetration testing purposes.
