exscan-0.4.tar.gz

exscan v0.4 is a network/Internet port scanner, that uses the strobe-scan technique of only scanning certain ports, instead of a full blown port scan. exscan is not only a port scanner, though. With some services (such as finger and HTTP) exscan queries the server for information (such as the users on finger; and the server version on HTTP). On other services (such as FTP, SMTP and others) exscan displays the information returned by the server, sometimes called a banner, and usually including the server type and version. Remote OS identification functionality from QueSO is also integrated into the exscan interface. This release features improved support for BSD/Sun/Solaris UNIX flavors.
