Hello,

Is there a solaris command or utilities for solaris that given an ip
address I can get as much info as possible. Such as kind of system, kind
of server, institution name or info, OS, is it a router, hub or anythign
else .

Please let me know where can I get such an utility.

Thanks,

Mario Desiderio

But you could do the commands by hand.
try rpcinfo, finger, nslookup, even telnet to the different the different
ports to see what they're running.

but SATAN will do a remote scan on a system for you.

 institution name or info
        whois

, OS
        See name, above.

, is it a router, hub or anythign
        Telnet to some well known ports to figure that out.  Eg.
Telnet port 139 if answered is probably NT server or Windows client.
Telnet port 23 if answered will give away kind of unix server, or
router info.  Telnet port 25 will give info on SMTP server.
        Routers are traditionally put on the lowest or highest ip
address on a network.  Traceroute can also help find these.

        Cheers,
                Mario
