RemoteDirDetector is the FREE tool to remotely detect type of Directory servers running on your local network or internet.

It is useful in environments where there are multiple directory servers such as Active Directory, eDirectory etc. Also it can be used in penetration testing while evaluating client environments where multiple Directory servers are deployed.

It supports following popular Directory servers.

How it works?

Each Directory server has its own characteristics that clearly separate it from others. To find out its type, use any available LDAP search tool with the following parameters:

Filter: (objectClass=*)
Base:
Scope: base level
Attributes: vendorversion, objectClass, isGlobalCatalogReady

Now search for the above attributes and based on the results we can categorize the Directory servers into following types:

eDirectory

Attribute vendorVersion will contain the term "Novell eDirectory".

Sun One Directory

Attribute vendorVersion will contain the term "Sun Directory".

OpenLDAP

The objectClass attribute contains one of the values as "OpenLDAProotDSE".

Active Directory

Search result will contain the value "isGlobalCatalogReady".

So using just one LDAP search over the Directory, you can find out its type accurately.

Requirements

1. Perl
You can download PERL for Windows/Linux/MAC from http://www.perl.org/get.html/div>

2. Perl Library - LDAP & Convert::ASN1
RemoteDirDetector requires additional PERL libraries to run smoothly. To make it easy for you, we have included current version of these libraries in the Downloaded Zip file.

You can simply copy them to %PERL_INSTALL_LOCATION%/lib folder.

How to Use?

Once you have installed Perl and dependent libraries (as mentioned in the above requirements section) you can run this tool as shown below.

Perl RemoteDirDetector.pl [-d] { host | host-range }

Options:
-d Do not use ping scan to check if the host is alive

//For single host

Perl RemoteDirDetector.pl -d ldap.myhost.edu
Perl RemoteDirDetector.pl 192.168.0.100

//For range of hosts

Perl RemoteDirDetector.pl 192.168.0.1-100
