HI,

I am experimenting with the promqry anti sniffing tool and i have a problem when trying to detect machines in promiscous mode in the network.

I get the followin message:

Query start time: 10/8/2012 6:17:36 PM

pinging 192.168.0.100...success

Querying 192.168.0.100...

Error: Access is denied.

Promqry must be run in the context of an administrator on the system being queried.

======================================

Query end time: 10/8/2012 6:17:36 PM

Does any one know whi this is happening and what does this mean?!

thnx. in advance! :)

For OP - Are you running this as an admin user ?

Info. for anyone else

Promqry can accurately determine if a modern (Windows 2000 and later) managed Windows system has network interfaces in promiscuous mode. If a system has network interfaces in promiscuous mode, it may indicate the presence of a network sniffer running on the system.

Promqry cannot detect standalone sniffers or sniffers running on non-Windows operating systems

Don't really know about Win 7 - take a look at the Requirements for it ? :- http://support.micro...om/kb/892853#14

Also - because Promqry and PromqryUI both use WMI (and DCOM), the tools must have access to various TCP/UDP ports, including TCP port 135, when they query remote computers.
