Are the systems you are trying to scan in a domain? If so, try to get a Domain Admin level account (even temporarily) and run the scan again. If you are doing this to help combat nachi, they should be willing to give you the access.
Also, look at psinfo (for Windows), part of the pstools from Sysinternals (http://www.sysinternals.com). It will tell you this sort of stuff: G:\Tools\sysinternals>psinfo PsInfo 1.34 - local and remote system information viewer Copyright (C) 2001-2002 Mark Russinovich Sysinternals - www.sysinternals.com System information for \\SYSTEM: Uptime: 0 days, 6 hours, 44 minutes, 33 seconds Kernel version: Microsoft Windows 2000, Uniprocessor Free Product type: Professional Product version: 5.0 Service pack: 4 Kernel build number: 2195 Registered organization: Business, Corp.

I have a need to scan a class B and remotely determine anything pre nt4.0 SP6a. I know there is a plugin 10401 that is suppose to do this via the registry, but it that it is either not working, or I don't have the proper permissions. Is there perhaps another vulnerability that only exists pre SP6 that I can scan for? I'm reading the SP6 fixes but have come up with nothing in which I can come up with an alternative plugin to determine if a machine is pre sp6. Also, if there is ANY other way besides the obvious SMS to determine (I've tried nmap -O). please let me know Thanks in advance. -Robert P.S. This has to do with our (rather our desktop guys) efforts in the battle for good vs. nachi. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
