We use Retina and Nessus too. Languard is a good tool (and free) but not comparable to 
the first ones. 
Then you can use SARA to audit your network and could be more specific auditing the 
most 20 critical vulnerabilities (SANS INSTITUTE). Try it. 

Chris, for firewalkin testing you should visit www.osstmm.org where you find links to 
useful tools.

Best regards (in my first mail to the list in a lot of time :) )

Retina is nice but not cheap. Nessus is nice and free, but not Windows
based. It's a client/server setup, the reporting console can be a Windows
client, but the actual scanner is Linux based. I set up a dual-boot XP/Linux
laptop server so I can take the scanner to different locations in our
network and scan from different directions to get different views, all
initiated from my PC (running XP). Snort is a good IDS (one of the best) and
free. There are Windows versions, but I run the Linux version, tied into a
mySQL database using ACID reporting, very cool.

I have also been wondering what people use for penetration testing or
security auditing??
