enum4linux-ng is a Python rewrite of the enum4linux.pl Windows/Samba enumeration tool, wrapping Samba utilities like nmblookup, net, rpcclient, and smbclient. It parses tool output and supports exporting findings as JSON or YAML for further processing by other tools.

Use cases

  • enumerate Windows and Samba hosts during a pentest
  • export SMB enumeration results as JSON for tooling pipelines
  • gather user, group, share, and policy info from SMB servers in CTFs
  • check SMB dialect and IPC signing support on a target
  • enumerate legacy SMBv1 systems

When to choose

  • you need structured JSON/YAML output from SMB enumeration
  • you want a maintained, feature-rich replacement for enum4linux.pl
  • you need IPv6, timeout, or multiple authentication method support
  • you are doing HackTheBox/CTF-style Windows enumeration

When to avoid

  • you need a GUI-based vulnerability scanner rather than a CLI enumerator
  • your target does not expose SMB/NetBIOS services
  • you need exploitation capabilities rather than enumeration
