Hi there Sean. I am currently halfway through writing a patch that: A: Logs direct to PostgreSQL database. B: Captures banners on TCP connections (and logs to postgres too...) I will post it to this list as soon as its complete. -- Brad. On Thu, Jun 27, 2002 at 05:43:09AM -0700, Sean Donner wrote:

With this option implemented into nmap, you could scan your network and see which services are giving up too much info, telnet is espeically guilty of this. I would imagine that this option would not be too hard to implement, although it would require a full tcp handshake and thus toss stealth scanning out the door with this on. A good idea would to also send a "HEAD / HTTP/1.0" command if a timeout occured while trying to grab a banner. Im new to this mailing list, so im not sure if this has been talked about before but I did not see it in any of the archives. Feedback is much appreciated. Thanks
