I would recommend a tool like Webreaper.  This will mirror the website onto your machine and allow you to inspect it 
closely.

Hi All,

Is there a way to somehow enumerate a directory structur on a remote webserver? Brute force springs to mind but thats mathematically impossible, to go through all combinations, etc.

   Cheers,

Nessus can tell you the directories in the root of your
web server and I think that also nikto can, so it could
be possible to traverse the directory tree.

Maybe you can give a try to intellitamper [1] wich will follow all links without making a mirror on your harddrive. For more complete listing you may search to exploit a flaw in the server if any.
