I doubt that increasing the timeout will help. As far as I can tell the problem is not about the timeout being too short. The problem is that comm library does only one recv. My impression is that the response arrives very quickly, but in multiple parts. So reading it is really fast, as long as you do multiple recv. --Toni On Sat, Dec 11, 2010 at 9:18 PM, David Fifield <david () bamsoftware com> wrote:

If the network conditions are good this does not matter, but over the Internet the first receive is not likely to contain the full banner. I think the comm library needs to be changed to do as many receives as it is able to do before a time out.Does this patch make a difference?No. Still broken, after applying the patch.Try increasing the timeout (shouldn't require the patch I gave you). If you find a reasonable timeout value I'll commit it. http://nmap.org/nsedoc/lib/comm.html David Fifield
