    Hi Steve;

    Thanks for your advice.

    I am a verrry greeeen *ix person :-( I have installed libnet at the \root
    of SuSE linux. However, when I am trying to install Firewalk 5.0 using
    /configure. It reported that it could not find Libnet 1.1.0.

    I realize that it is a Linux question, I am hoping a fellow subscriber
    could shed light on it.

    Thanks,

    DF

    Firewalk would probably be a better tool to look at

    hping2 is a feature rich utility. However it is new to me. Could you some
    please tell me which syntax(es) could I do to test our firewall externally?

    I am trying to use HPING to find out the firewall which nmap and nessus
    could not find.

    The nmap syntax is nmap -v -sT sV -P0 -O.

    Any suggestions/comments/advise are much appreciated.

    Many thanks!

    DF
