I've been looking for a tool like this, and I was told that one existed,
but I could never find it in kdenetwork.  I do agree that the name is a
bit misleading, however.  It makes me think that kNetmon is a network
monitor--Microsoft ships a similar application with WinNT, and it
certainly is not the network neighborhood.  Why not change the name to
something that isn't misleading?  BTW, it would be great to have a
"Network Neighborhood" icon on the KDE desktop.  The KDE Wizard thing
could add it just like it adds Floppy (which does not necessarily work)
and CD-ROM.
