WinFingerprint

WinFingerprint is an application that enables security administrators to scan a range of IP addresses and retrieve useful information on the remote hosts, such as patch level.

The tool is wrapped in a user-friendly interface that's not particularly attractive but contains a well-organized layout. You can scan an IP range or list, single host, or neighborhood, as well as set the domain, active directory, or WMI API as target.

You can set the number of retries and maximum connections, timeout for TCP/ UDP/ ICMP/ SNMP, TCP and UDP port scan range, and SNMP community string.

WinFingerprint is able to send the Ping and Traceroute signals to the hosts, show an event log and errors, and more. Results include the computer name, Ping reply time, SID, MAC address, patch level, NetBIOS shares, and services.

The application does not put a strain on system resources, since it runs on a very low amount of CPU and RAM. It has a good response time and works smoothly, without causing the operating system to hang, crash or pop up error dialogs.

Unfortunately, WinFingerprint has not been updated for a long time. Nevertheless, it provides advanced users with a simple method for retrieving remote host information.
