Remote IPCONFIG

uch

Does anybody know of any utility or command that I can use from my PC to gather all the IP details (like IP Config /all) of remote servers

Khannie

Are they windows servers?

uch

a mixture of windows and linux

For Windows ones I guess you could connect using a vpn and use this

wolfric

Well you could make your own with netcat and a little scripting.

Khannie

For linux ones, set up ssh key exchange, then you can automate the whole process by running (probably from cygwin if you're running windows):

ssh <server> ifconfig -a

I'm not sure if you can set up an ssh server on a windows box, but if you can, that would be how I'd do it, then just have "one script to rule them all".

wolfric

Forgive me for being so bold but i am fairly sure he's not going to want to switch to linux just to be able to do "ifconfig" remotly.

Maybe read the thread and you'd see he has some windoze machines and linux boxes to get the ip info from, ifconfig using an ssh tunnel would be a good idea.

Cygwin comes with an openssh server, so you could use that on the windows machines.

If you're using dell servers, why not set up khannie's script to poll the DRAC? You can SSH to that.

thanks lads, only problem is I know squat diddly about Linux, I just need to get an inventory of IP details of all servers but I dont have access to the most of the servers

CCSL

will give you basic info on all machines on a subnet ip address name and any open ports. would be a start at least.

to get the computers mac address ping it and then run arp -a to show the list.
