Thread: NetBIOS Question

  1. #1

    NetBIOS Question

    Hi,

    I am doing a test on two servers at work.

    Netbios on the two servers is enabled and accessible to those who enter correct username and password combinations.
    My question is this:
    If someone has access to a computer through Netbios (net use * \\192.168.0.1\C$ /U:surreal) can they execute programs that would execute on the server itself and not on the client that issued the command? If so how?

    Thanks for your time.
    Regards,
    Surreal

    psexec is definitely a cool tool

    It's part of the pstools package and can be downloaded for free on the SysInternals website.

    Yes, as has been mentioned PSEXEC is a favorite but there are many others. If you are using NetBios make sure you have the NullSession disabled or all your work will be for naught. A nice little program like ENUM.EXE can quickly enumerate accounts and TONS of useful info as well as perform a dictionary attack on NetBios shares which can quickly lead to the comprise of an otherwise sturdy seeming network, this also emphasizes the importance of strong passwords. I have been able to comprise many a server through the use of simple tools such as enum and a good wordlist.
