Hello all, I was just recently handed a project of having to document all of the open ports on an internal network of servers and provide a definition and justification for all of the open ports. My first thought was to use nmap to scan all of the machines and then simply go through and write a short justification for each open port. Unfortunately the management types want this done in a nice pretty (useless) spreadsheet for each machine. Since the output of nmap only lists the number, status, name and owner of the open ports it finds, I have go through each report individually to add the definition and justification. What I would like to have (and it may be available and I'm just missing it) is a way to get the output to list all of the information found in the nmap-services line plus the status of the port. For example, currently nmap returns the following line when finding port 22 open: 22/tcp open ssh However, this is what is in the distributed nmap-services file for that port: ssh 22/tcp # Secure Shell Login ssh 22/udp # Secure Shell Login I'd like to see all of the fields in the nmap-services file be present in the output (even if only as an option, perhaps as part of the -v?). Then the output would be similar to the following: open ssh 22/tcp # Secure Shell Login open ssh 22/udp # Secure Shell Login This way sites could customize the last field in the nmap-services file to provide things like definitions/descriptions/justifications for the ports that are open. FWIW, I'm using the nmap V. 2.54BETA28 package from www.sunfreeware.com. fpsm . --------------------------------------------------------------------- For help using this (nmap-dev) mailing list, send a blank email to nmap-dev-help () insecure org .
