lefthook Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 What good remote security scanners you recommend? I have tested my server now with ess.0.86. NSAT I could not compile with LM 8.1. Not Nessus because I have understood that it needs parts on tested machine? & I have built my server from scrap & LRP things & its diffcult add things there. With Satan I had compile problems too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Counterspy Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 If you are looking for an external site that probes your ports, then Shields Up at http://www.grc.com is very popular. A Google search will pull up others that will do more, some with a fee. Counterspy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted December 29, 2002 Report Share Posted December 29, 2002 www.grc.com is ok if you're only looking to scan about 10 ports. To do a couple more :-) head over to http://scan.sygatetech.com/. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lefthook Posted December 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 Thanks to this far. But my server does not have X or any browser, so I have to test it from my LM 8.1. Or perhaps if I install Lynx hmmm.. . I see java appletts & frames. Sygate looks good. But I think that Web based checks do not have so many exploit checks than real progs. Perhaps I found some easy install rpms. BUT, THANKS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or better yet if possible fire up another nix box outside of your firewall and do it yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
