Thanks |

Try here.
Don't know how good it is, but I've used it to check that my firewall was blocking something atleast. |

Just make sure you do it from a machine on the other side of your firewall, i.e. the internet. _________________ moo |

I find nessus the best. I use it from home to scan a bunch on networks I look after - after taking down VPN's etc. As the other posters say, you need access to a unix box outside the network you are trying to test |
