Re: http-date.nse

[Joao Correa <joao () livewire com br>]

Hi guys,

I've written POST and HEAD support for http.lua a few weeks ago. I
never committed and never mentioned it on the list before because I
didn't test it properly.

I didn't know about this other patch mentioned by Jorg. Both HEAD
methods are very similar (and honestly I can't think how this could be
very different). Anyway, POST method is slightly different.

I've tested HEAD using david's script (http-date.nse) and it worked
properly (both script and method).

Follows the patch.

Thanks,
Joao Correa
