Greetings!  I written a whitepaper that explores some methods for host 
discovery, paying the most attention to discovering hosts behind a firewall 
with an explicit policy.  Probably won't be terribly valueable to the seasoned 
pen tester, but I think it lays out the basics and should give you some 
ideas.  I also wrote a perl script that implements the ideas presented.

You can find the whitepaper at http://moonpie.org/writings/discovery.pdf and 
the perl script at http://moonpie.org/tools/discover.tgz

I'm interested in hearing your comments if you have time :)

Best Regards,

- Mark
