Bot Hunting capabilities added by Hunter Gregal

##Requirements

The netaddr module must be installed, on Debian/Ubuntu systems simply run:

sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

##Install

Clone this repository or save botHunter.py on your machine and make it executable:

wget https://github.com/huntergregal/botHunter/botHunter.py
chmod +x ./botHunter.py

##Usage

usage: botHunter.py [-h] [-t MAXTHREADS] [-w TIMEOUT] [-s]
                     [targets [targets ...]]

positional arguments:
  targets

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -t MAXTHREADS, --threads MAXTHREADS
                        Number of threads to use, default is 10
  -w TIMEOUT, --wait TIMEOUT
                        Seconds to wait before timeout, default is 2
  -s, --shuffle         Shuffle the target list

##Examples

The syntax for specifying targets is similar to nmap. Here are some examples:

Scan three individual IPs:

./botHunter.py 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.3

Scan an entire IP-block using CIDR notation (in this example, all hosts from 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.254 will be scanned, a total of 254 hosts):

./botHunter.py 192.168.1.0/24

Feed targets from a other programm using a pipe (must be IPs, seperated by newlines!):

cat mytargets.txt | ./botHunter.py
