('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) I performed a vulnerability assesment in a similar environment. It was Windows so I ran MSBA against all the machines on the LAN together. Luckily all local admin passwords were the same.

I'd question why they have 25 different pcs in a peer-to-peer topology. Doesn't seem very efficient. Especially when it comes to security patch deployment. Do the users go to their own machine one by one to apply patches? That's probably too cumbersome and you'll proibably find missing patches on a number of those machines. You vuln assesment could include security process and procedures.
