nbname

a11y.text nbname

The nbname auxiliary module scans a range of hosts and determines their hostnames via NetBIOS.

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/netbios/nbname
msf auxiliary(nbname) > show options

Module options (auxiliary/scanner/netbios/nbname):

   Name       Current Setting  Required  Description
   ----       ---------------  --------  -----------
   BATCHSIZE  256              yes       The number of hosts to probe in each set
   RHOSTS                      yes       The target address range or CIDR identifier
   RPORT      137              yes       The target port (UDP)
   THREADS    10               yes       The number of concurrent threads

To configure the module, we set the RHOSTS and THREADS values then let it run.

msf auxiliary(nbname) > set RHOSTS 192.168.1.200-210
RHOSTS => 192.168.1.200-210
msf auxiliary(nbname) > set THREADS 11
THREADS => 11
msf auxiliary(nbname) > run

nbname_probe

a11y.text nbname_probe

Note: The nbname_probe module is no longer in the Metasploit framework.

The nbname_probe auxiliary module uses sequential NetBIOS probes to determine the NetBIOS names of the remote targets.

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/netbios/nbname_probe
msf auxiliary(nbname_probe) > show options

Module options (auxiliary/scanner/netbios/nbname_probe):

   Name     Current Setting  Required  Description
   ----     ---------------  --------  -----------
   CHOST                     no        The local client address
   RHOSTS                    yes       The target address range or CIDR identifier
   RPORT    137              yes       The target port
   THREADS  1                yes       The number of concurrent threads

The only configuration we need for this module is to set our RHOSTS and THREADS values and let it run against our remote targets.

RHOSTS => 192.168.1.200-210
