Chip Andrews of SQL Server Security fame has completed SQLRecon v1.0,
the successor to SQLPing2, which aggregates multiple SQL Server
discovery methods into a single, easy-to-use tool.

And now for the good news! SQLRecon v1.0 has been released to the public
as a free tool.

SQLRecon performs both active and passive scans of your network in order
to identify all of the SQL Server/MSDE installations in your enterprise.

Due to the proliferation of personal firewalls, inconsistent network
library configurations, and multiple-instance support, SQL Server
installations are becoming increasingly difficult to discover, assess,
and maintain. SQLRecon is designed to remedy this problem by combining
all known means of SQL Server/MSDE discovery into a single tool which
can be used to ferret-out servers you never knew existed on your network
so you can properly secure them.

FEATURES

* Multi-threaded scanning engine
* 6 Active scanning techniques
* 2 Stealth scanning techniques
* IP Range scanning
* IP List scanning
* Export results as XML or text file
* Export IP list for use in future scans (i.e. Passive to Active)
* ICMP check to increase scan speed
* Debug mode to allow for greater scan visibility
* Allows alternate credentials
* Custom source port for UDP packets for firewall evasion
