How about you: 1. Figure out what proxy server(s) they *could* be running. 2. Write a script to find and report those installed on the local machine. 3. Declare a licence audit, and make every user run it on their machine. (Telling them it catalogs what programs are installed.) Just looking at it from a different perspective... ;) Daniel T. Staal
That can be very useful if you are looking for a proxy installed by one employee or any person in the local network, that's acting as a proxy to external connections.
From what I have understood from the original poster what he wants
to find it's the transparent proxy that it's redirecting his traffic. But if you are finding an application proxy installed on one of the desktop computers then it could be possible to do it just using nmap to see what ports are open in all the computers in the network, or using nessus to find strange programs listening on strange ports. Nessus can do a great job in portscanning the network, it has the nmap capabilities and some more techniques to find open ports. -- Jose Maria Lopez Hernandez Director Tecnico de bgSEC jkerouac () bgsec com bgSEC Seguridad y Consultoria de Sistemas Informaticos http://www.bgsec.com ESPAÑA The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles. -- Jack Kerouac, "On the Road" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ethical Hacking at the InfoSec Institute.
