New sniffer soon coming to a server near you

This little gem is probably one of those diagnostic tools that -- like BackOrifice and Metasploit Framework -- in the right hands is a good diagnostic tool and in the wrong hands is a bad diagnostic tool:

http://www.serversniff.net/index.php

�ServerSniff.net - Your free "Swiss Army Knife" for networking, serverchecks and routing with many many little toys and tools for administrators, webmasters, developers, powerusers und security-aware users.

�Tools for webmasters and developers:

�Benchmarks and informations about servers, routing, IP-Stacks, encryption, security, nameservers and domains.

�Tools for powerusers:

�For powerusers ServerSniff.net offers computing Hashes for strings and files and simply a lot of information about servers, ssl-encryption, domains etc.

�ServerSniff.net gathers only public information about servers and networks from publicly available sources or from asking the servers directly.�

It doesn�t exactly build confidence when you find that the ServerSniff "terms of use and acceptable use policy" is a dead link: http://beta.serversniff.net/terms_of_use

Terms of use


Thanks Alex.

Update 03/11:

Alert reader "Guest" pointed out a link where terms of use are available: http://beta.serversniff.de/terms_of_use. Looks like it might have been a typo.
