It would affect the whole interface: the Ports / Hosts tab and the Topology view in particular. I'm curious what other people had in mind as to how host filtering should work.
That looks great to me! It might be nice to have a little question mark or other icon by the field label which pops up syntax help. That could be as simiple as opening a web browser to the expression syntax page. You currently find it here: http://nmap.org/book/zenmap-search.html#zenmap-fig-search-expressions But it would probably be moved to a separate section from "searching saved results" since filtered results will presumably share the same syntax. This is the sort of feature which really makes a GUI shine. Even if I ran a big scan from the command-line I can imagine opening the XML results up in Zenmap to analyze results just for this feature alone. It would make it so effortless to show just the boxes with SSH, just the ones with Apache web servers running, just the Linux machines, just those infected by Conficker, etc. Cheers, -F _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
