Oh, I fully understand/agree that this is a pix problem. I was curious as to how widespread or known it may be. One would think that the scanners or people running them would hit a number of pix firewalls. I thought I was going to get reprimanded for having missed an advisory. Out of curiosity, how well can one determine where/when ISS stopped checking. The /tmp logs seem to give some indication, but nothing concrete,
In the Windows NT GUI version you can doubleclick on the machine being scanned and then on the 'tab' with the icon for 'Status' to see the current state/progress. You can also click on the 'Vulnerabilities' tab to see the security vulnerabilities found by name and ranked (H,M,L) by color.
and unless I'm running a sniffer on the net at the same time, how does one go about determining which state your at. ...
One way would be to try to isolate down to one ISS test (e.g. in this case one of the SNMP ISS tests) and still reproduce the same result. Turn off all of the other ISS tests and then divide and conquer (ie. by the binary search method) down to just the SNMP test which causes the problem (if it still does). - Morrow
