     I think nessus for Solaris8 and Solaris9 (I donĀ“t know for version 7) is
available in pkg format (easy and instant installation) at www.sunfreeware.com,
though you need to previously install additional packages (openssl, glib, gtk
and libgcc).

     There is also the last version of nmap in pkg format.

Among tools that other people suggested, you can install Nessus on that
machine and run tests on target machines.
You'll need nmap for that as well.

Installation *can* be tricky, you can find some info on the following URL
(it's for Solaris 7, but you can find it useful):

Hi

I have recently been given the task of Pen-Testing several
large Windows networks, running a variety of versions of windows.

Unfortunatly the only platform I will have to conduct the
tests will be a Sparc Solaris 2.6 box. I will have command
line access only to this box.

I envisage the main problems with the boxes to be poor
passwords, open shares, IIS, and MS SQL.

Given these limits what command line tools would people
suggest as the best ones to use that will run under Solaris
2.6? I have my own ideas for several of them but would
appreaciate any extra input.

Cheers,

Peter
