Check out GFI's LANGUARD security scanner. I have found it to be
flexible and easy to use. You can enter admin credentials and it
will enumerate shares, policies, password ages, registry keys, patch
information, and more. You can push patches remotely, as well.

It's not open source, but you do get a 30 day trial. After the
trial, you can still use it to do a lot, but some features are
disabled.

suggest any alternatives open source tools for conducting
vulnerability test in a LAN typical windows machines. Thanks

I have on hand now using nessus, but would like to have another tool.

Best Regards,
