I am pretty much a newbie to actual pentesting but not a newbie to networking. I have been lurking on this list a while trying to learn as much as I can. So here is what I need a little help with. I am trying to communicate/scan with a computer behind one of those firewall/router appliances. When I've done an Ack scan it shows that all ports are unfiltered, but all other scans show the ports as being filtered, so I think it is a packet filter and is not stateful. It probably is also performing NAT. How can I determine what hosts are live on the internal network and how would I be able to establish any communication with them. What kind of swithes with nmap would I be able to use to determine live hosts behind such a router, and then once I can determine what hosts are up what kind of tools can I use to actually try and test/penetrate such a host through the firewall. Sorry to take up your time with such a newbie question but Ive searched the archives and didnt really come up with a specific solution. Links or just a push in the right direction would be really appreciated, I'll do the research from there. Thanks. __________________________________________________ FREE voicemail, email, and fax...all in one place.
