    Greetings,

    I want to be able to setup a network file share that contains
    a script and programs that when executed produce a security
    audit report. I need the programs to operate in command line
    mode, require no special installation, and do not alter the machine
    they run on.

    I can create one myselft that uses 'open ports' to list network usage,
    'running processes' (cmdline.exe) to list *all* running processes
    including hidden ones. But I would also like to list programs that
    run at startup, service pack/patch level, etc.

    Would someone please recommend a script/programs that generate
    a comprehensive security audit for a Windows server?

    Thanks,

    Stan
