testing new ldm with out encryption

[Alfred Nutile]

I get ip address of the stations. ie 192.168.8:6.0 <--do not know what 
the 6.0 is.
Though the dhcp for one of them and the host file shows it to be ws008
and arp as well, but even on that machine I get the ip.
So is that ssh or is that not?
Thanks
