[nevermind, I figured it out. Nmap is awesome.]

Look under "HOST DISCOVERY" in the nmap manpage.
What you're looking for is probably
Code: 
nmap -sP 192.168.1.*


It pings every address to see if it's up. Of course, that won't work when they're dropping ICMP echo requests, like most desktop firewalls do. You'll find more about what to do then in the manpage.
Sorry for the lousy German

I've just finished a scan (it took quite a few minutes) with

nmap -sL -d 192.168.1.0/24


Your way is much faster. Thanks!
