Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Hosting Security and Technology : Script for telling you what software is installed on your servers

[Matrix]

Is there any type of script that can be installed on your servers that will tell you exactly what software that they are running?

Like what operating system/version, mySQL version, PHP etc?

I went to www.netcraft.com but would like to install a script that is more detailed.

Thanks

Hi,

I believe that the commands "ps -ef" and "netstat -plan" are good enough to determine them.

Why do you need a custom script for that?

Host is telling me that they don't know what's on the servers and asking me even though they have did all of the work on the servers.

What OS you are running? Windows/apache..?

I didn't know Apache had their own OS now hehehehe

Are you on *nix or a Winfail box?

If you connect to your box via SSH, means it is linux and Remote Desktop Connection means Windows.

For Linux:
rpm -qa : list out all the software.
httpd -v : list your apache version
mysql --version : list your mysql version
php -v : list your PHP version

There are some scripts(for windows) that displays what softwares installed in the server and it doesn't require to login to server and check them one by one. Instead it displays in browser.

Thanks,

I'm on a linux box using apache.

What software can you install to look at all of the info on a server through a web browser for linux?
