I just didn't want to make it a default script this close to the stable release. I've updated the CHANGELOG. We really need to revisit the NSE category names (though any major changes would be after the stable release).What is the easiest way if you want to run "all" scripts? I see an option -sC equivalent to --script=safe,intrusive. Is there a -sA for all scripts or do you just do -script <directory>?Script <directory> sounds like a good idea. I think we should make a convenience option for this as well (e.g. -sC all).
I started thinking related to testing and such that it might be a good idea in Alpha's, Beta's, and Release Candidates etc in the release notes to encourage people to run with --script all to give more testing to some of the scripts that are not run as often. Then there should be time when some of the less intensive scripts be move to the safer categories. Also can a script be in more then one category? i.e can a script be both Safe and Discovery? Something to consider if you rework the categories.... _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
