death
asmy first assignment in Pen-Testing class. i am unable to do this
using
thebiult in ping utilities in windows and linux. i could not find any
tool
onthe internet as well.You didn't look very hard then... that is, if you really are 'in Pen-Testing class' my friend ;) Drop to a shell on *nix and type 'man ping'. I'm running SuSE 8.2 and
I
found this option, which is also present in the ping on my OpenBSD
box:
-s packetsize Specifies the number of data bytes to be sent. The default is 56, which translates into 64 ICMP data bytes when combined with the 8 bytes of ICMP header data. You'll probably have issues if you aren't root. I've seen other stuff available for windows but that was some time ago and I don't remember much. You're at a serious, serious disadvantage
if
you want to do pen testing or serious security work and you're only going to use windows. Some places to look for stuff: http://www.packetstormsecurity.org http://www.insecure.org/tools.html Quite honestly, you could probably lurk and use nothing but the www.packetstormsecurity.org site and get all you need off there. It's one of the best resources period. -- For Good, return Good. For Evil, return Justice.
