Hi Ron,

Hey all,

I was playing with http-enum.nse and http-userdir-enum.nse and, when I got
odd results, I wanted to know what server the remote host was running. So
naturally, I'd fire up netcat (err, ncat? ;) ) and do a quick GET or HEAD
request.

That's when I decided to write a script to do it for me: http-headers.nse.
It's super simple, it just does a GET for '/' and returns the HTTP headers.

(Why do I suddenly have a feeling of deja vu -- did somebody else write this
already?)

Anyway, I've attached it. If you guys think it's worth including, I'll
commit.

I like this script but why do you have it in the "intrusive" category?
