RE: Windows info from the registry

Subject: RE: Windows info from the registry

I have just discovered that my predecessor in this company asked a
similar question this time last year. Unfortunately we can not install
an SSH server on the windows boxes. Does anyone know how I can get some
of this information using smb_func.inc, or SMB in general?
 
Thanks and regards,

        Basically u can write a simple plugin to execute a ssh command
using the fucntion, 'ssh_cmd' exists in ssh_func.inc. And execute the
necessary commands depending on what you are looking.

        For the function usage look into the plugin, ssh_get_info.nasl

        Commands listed below can be used to get the information which
you had asked for.

        hostname

        /sbin/ifconfig -a  

         ipconfig all  

        netsh diag show os /v

        systeminfo

        psinfo -h

                Hi, 

                Sorry if this has been asked before but I could not find
it elsewhere. You can find various information by having nessus log into
a machine and search the registry for certain keys. Does anyone know is
it possible to obtain the following information from an existing plugin?
If not, would it be easy enough to modify a plugin to check for these
items? 

                1. hostname - I know this can be gotten from the SMB
share, but it would be nice to get the details in one report 
                2. List of Network cards, their Mac address, and any
IP/mask assigned 
                3. Routing table 
                4. Hardware spec - Make, model, cpu size, memory size
etc 
                5. Disk size, partitioning, and RAID number 

                I know these things should be gotten from a network
inventory, but I have been asked could nessus do these checks. 

                Thank in advance,
