Scripts that are using protocols which are available _only_ in one mode IPv4 or IPv6, can call the nmap.address_family() function, check the returned string 'inet' or 'inet6' and fail silently with a debug message.Hello, Please find attached a patch that add such a check for several IPv4 only scripts. I have only checked and fixed scripts that perform "raw" packets manipulation. The patch also contains error messages standardization, replacing nmap.log_write() with hardcoded script name by the more common stdnse.print_debug() using the SCRIPT_NAME variable (as noticed in [1]). The same scripts and functions are concerned by both modifications.
Thanks, Henri. I split the patch into two and committed it. David Fifield _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/
