Right.  The brute-force method would be to ping the entire subnet and
then lookup the MAC in the arp table.  Fortunately, I'm on a class-C
subnet so it wouldn't be too big a problem.  But I was hoping for a
more general solution that could also be used on a class-A network.

Yes, the goal is to figure out the IP address of the guest VM.
