Thanks everyone for your responses... I guess I've been missing large parts of nessus's abilities!I've installed 2.2.2a and Hydra... now I just need to figure out how to get them to work together.
Has anyone looked at the new nessus book available on Amazon? Just wondering if it would be helpful.

Internet Scanner does a good job of enumerating accounts on a Windows Domain(using netbios and null sessions) but if you tried to brute force/dictionary every account that it found the scan would take a VERY long time to complete. If you are trying to pw crack through a service (ftp,telnet,http...), use hydra otherwise use LC or John the Ripper. BTW, Nessus also does a good job enumerating accounts, and its free ;) Dan On Mon, 13 Dec 2004 19:10:29 -0600, Jeffrey M.

Has anyone used LC5 and can anyone compare it to ISS? Also are there any OpenSource tools that can do these sorts of checks? Thanks J_
