[Suspected Spam]RE: Profiling a Networks Infrastructure

If you want to find oracle databases on the local network you should
consider using TNS ping  or SID tester this tool will send a custom packet
to the oracle listener to get oracle SID information from the database
server. Up to Oracle 9i R2 SID information could easily be retrieved by
intruder but since the release of 10g Oracle tried to hide this information.
One of the methods adapted by hackers is to try the SID is to send different
combinations of oracle database SID names and see if it matches the SID name
on the database server. Once you get the SID information you can run default
password attack or Brute Force Attack on the oracle server as you may know
that on most of the server Scott and DBSNMP are open 
Happy test.

You may use portscan tools like nmap to scan a network and identify
hosts which are running particular services. 

$ man nmap

        THE LAST BUG
"But you're out of your mind,"              It still wasn't perfect,
They said with a shrug.                     As year followed year,
"The customer's happy;                      And strangers would comment,
What's one little bug?"                     "Is that guy still here?"
But he was determined.                      He died at the console,
The others went home.                       Of hunger and thirst.
He spread out the program,                  Next day he was buried,
Deserted, alone.                            Face down, nine-edge first.
The cleaning men came,                      And the last bug in sight,
The whole room was cluttered                An ant passing by,
With memory-dumps, punch cards.             Saluted his tombstone,
"I'm close," he muttered.                   And whispered, "Nice try."
The mumbling got louder,
Simple deduction,
"I've got it, it's right,
Just change one instruction."
