Ping sweep with nmap

2012-03-10T13:09:00.000-03:00

From nmap man

" -sP (Ping Scan)
              This option tells Nmap to only perform a ping scan (host discovery), then print out the available hosts that responded to the scan. No further testing (such as port scanning or OS detection) is performed. This is one step more intrusive than the list scan, and can often be used for the same purposes. It allows light reconnaissance of a target network without attracting much attention. Knowing how many hosts are up is more valuable to attackers than the list provided by list scan of every single IP and host name.

              Systems administrators often find this option valuable as well. It can easily be used to count available machines on a network or monitor server availability. This is often called a ping sweep, and is more reliable than pinging the broadcast address because many hosts do not reply to broadcast queries.

              The -sP option sends an ICMP echo request and a TCP packet to port 80 by default. When executed by an unprivileged user, a SYN packet is sent (using a connect() call) to port 80 on the target. When a privileged user tries to scan targets on a local ethernet network, ARP requests (-PR) are used unless --send-ip was specified. The -sP option can be combined with any of the discovery probe types (the -P* options, excluding -P0) for greater flexibility. If any of those probe type and port number options are used, the default probes (ACK and echo request) are overridden. When strict firewalls are in place between the source host running Nmap and the target network, using those advanced techniques is recommended. Otherwise hosts could be missed when the firewall drops probes or their responses."

nmap -sP 192.168.*.*

How to SMTP Auth in Sendmail (CentOS)

2011-08-02T16:39:00.001-04:00

By default sendmail-cf is not installed in CentOS:

yum install sendmail-cf

Then edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and add this:

TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`EXTERNAL DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl

compile the new configuration:

make -C /etc/mail/

saslauthd must by running:

/etc/init.d/saslauthd start

and make it available on startup:

chkconfig saslauthd on

then restart sendmail:

/etc/init.d/sendmail restart

and it's ready to use
For a powerful mail server, you can combine this configuration with MailScanner, clamav and grey-list.
