Just a small thing I noticed, there's no newline after information about the --script-updatedb flag. "ATTACK SCRIPT SCAN: -sC: equivalent to --script=safe,intrusive --script=<lua scripts>: <lua scripts> is a coma separated list of dirs or scripts --script-trace: Show all data sent and received --script-updatedb: Update the script database. Only performed if -sC or --script was also given.OS DETECTION: -O: Enable OS detection (try 2nd generation w/fallback to 1st) -O2: Only use the new OS detection system (no fallback) -O1: Only use the old (1st generation) OS detection system --osscan-limit: Limit OS detection to promising targets --osscan-guess: Guess OS more aggressively " On Sun, 12 Nov 2006 01:14:51 +0100, "Diman Todorov" <diman.todorov () chello at> said:
Hello List, this may be the last release candidate of the NSE scripting language. If all goes as planned the next NSE is going to be part of the Nmap Core. This means that if you would like to make contributions which are going to have a greater impact on NSE now is the best time of all. I remember people planning to add a raw socket interface to NSE or buffered I/O, these would be projects which are definitely concerned. The two highlights of this release are the thorough documentation (as anounced by Fyodor) and PCRE support for NSE scripts. Other than that lot of attention has been paid to stabilizing and streamlining the system. There have been slight changes in the API to make it more consistent, you might as well peek into the documentation for details. As usual Nmap is distributed as gz and bzip2 packed tarballs, as a windows self installer and zip packed windows binaries. All of these can be found here: http://xover.mud.at/~diman/nmap/ NSE has been briefly tested on Linux, MacOSX ppc and Win32. If it doesn't work on your system, please contact me. If you have any criticism or suggetions you are very welcome to share them. cheers Diman _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
