Nicolas,Nessus identifies if the remote host is running under VMWare with vmware_detect.nasl.Hm, you're right. There also exists a plugin to identify a vmware-server. vmware_detect.nasl relies primarly on the MAC adress, but the list seems not to be complete for not discovering my VMware :) vmware_server_detect.nasl checks the banner of the VMware remote-console but also failed to identify my server. Hopefully I got time to write a fix during my holidays. Cheers, Toby
We've blogged about this in the past: http://blog.tenablesecurity.com/2006/07/enhanced_vmware.html The plugin requires either a MAC address (from a local ping) or a credentialed OS check.
