Use gettype.exe from the MS Resource Kits. There are two versions, one for 9x & NT, the other for 2k, xp and up. E:\gettype Host Name: spork Name: Windows XP Professional Version: 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Role: Workgroup Components: Not Installed Alternatively you can use ver, which is built into the command shell but you may have spotty results with this method. To execute them you should use psexec from sysinternals and remotely run a batch file that you'll create. Contents of file: checkver.bat net use b: \\computer\share ver > b:\%computername%.txt (or b:\gettype > b:\%computername%.txt) net use /delete b: Then run the following command against all your workstations: psexec \\<wokstation> -low -u <admin account> -p <passwd> -c checkver.bat OS fingerprinting is great but if you HAVE credentials on your boxes why not use em? -Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Trevor Cushen [mailto:Trevor.Cushen () sysnet ie] Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 4:59 AM To: petreski () ksu edu Cc: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: RE: Win95 detection Have you tried a login script to do the job for you? Kix32 is perfect for this job. -----Original Message----- From: Samuel Petreski [mailto:petreski () ksu edu] Sent: 30 November 2004 21:53 To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Win95 detection I have been given the task to scan for hosts that are running Windows 95 on the network. I have tried scanning with Nmap and Nessus, however they cannot distinguish the hosts between 95/98/ME. I was wondering if anyone has run across a tool that is able to detect Win95 hosts on the network. Thanks for your help.
