Recon & Enumeration

What it’s for

Enumerates information from Windows and Samba hosts over SMB: shares, users, groups and password policy.

Where it shines

  • Quick SMB recon on internal tests
  • Pulls a lot from a single command

Where it falls down

  • Compatability issues with out of date binaries.

My take

I like this tool in some instances, but there are other methods to get the same result. While I will run it on most engagements, for it to work well it either requires Null auth to be enabled, or you need user creds.
