enum4linux-ng.py is a rewrite of Mark Lowe’s (former Portcullis Labs now Cisco CX Security Labs) enum4linux.pl, a tool for enumerating information from Windows and Samba systems, aimed for security professionals and CTF players. The tool is mainly a wrapper around the Samba tools nmblookup, net, rpcclient and smbclient.
I made it for educational purposes for myself and to overcome issues with enum4linux.pl. It has the same functionality as the original tool (though it does some things differently).
Other than the original tool it parses all output of the Samba tools and allows to export all findings as YAML or JSON file. The idea behind this is to allow other tools to import the findings and further process them. It is planned to add new features in the future.
Some things are implemented differently compared to the original enum4linux. These are the important differences

It was lots of fun reading your code! 🙂
If you use the tool: Don’t use it for illegal purposes.

DNS cache is a temporary database your OS and browser build as you browse. Each time you visit a website, the domain-to-IP mapping is saved locally, cutting out the round trip to a remote DNS server on repeat visits. Stale entries are the most common reason to flush the DNS cache: a server moves to a new IP, but your OS or browser still routes to the old address. This guide covers how to clear the DNS cache on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and how to flush the separate cache stored inside Chrome and Firefox.
