This is a tool i really enjoy, Nikto2, a web server scanner which performs comprehensive tests against web servers for multiple items, including over 6100 potentially dangerous files/CGIs, checks for outdated versions of over 950 servers, and version specific problems on over 260 servers.
On a Debian based system you can download it typing:
sudo apt-get install nikto
or install from there website on :
http://cirt.net/Nikto2
when you are done just type :
nikto -h www.example.com //example.com being the adress you wanna search.
You can type sudo nikto -update, to update to the latest databases and plugins. And if you want to enable a proxy goto etc/nikto/config.txt and change the proxy settings.
Nikto2 can be a very valuable tool for web designers, pen testers and many others. A special thanks to Chris Sullo and David Lodge for developing this tool.
