Ooooo I do have WMIC :)

So a bit of remote WMIC code execution and some commandlinekungfu.com Fu - hmmmm.

I have a client that needs to deploy security patches for Apache but are not 100% sure of which host houses the 
instance or the ports used either.

My question is how can I identify 100%  of the instances effectively and reasonably quietly without scanning nearly 
all of the ports on all the hosts?

I thought of pulling the ports enabled from the host based firewall solution and scanning these with nmap. But a port 
could be blocked through the firewall and an instance still listening locally although not remotely accessible 
providing the FW is running. These do exist for tools run locally and I've seen the FW fail too so want to ensure 
coverage for these also.

I like the idea of using Nessus (which I have) to perform a credentialed local scan of the ports listening on the 
server but I think this needs SMB and Admin shares enabled which I don't have.

Is there another way to do this? 

Grateful for any ideas.
