Thanks for this bug report! The ssh-auth-methods.nse script was part of our SVN development trunk for a while before the libssh2 integration was reverted. Unfortunately, the feature was not ready for prime-time. It looks like you installed from SVN, then rolled back to the 6.47 release, which left some scripts in place. I've addressed this in SVN by bumping the version number: prior to r33623, SVN was showing Nmap 6.46, but was actually *ahead* of the 6.47 release. Now it shows 6.47SVN. To fix your installation, the cleanest way would be to remove all the installed files and reinstall. Our Makefiles should support the "uninstall" target, but some stuff may get missed; be sure to "rm -rf /usr/local/share/nmap" before reinstalling. Generally, I recommend only using one method or another for installing. That is to say, don't install from SVN, and then install from the release tarball or RPMs. If you compile from source, use a package manager to allow you to remove or upgrade Nmap cleanly. On Ubuntu, I like to use checkinstall: $ svn co https://svn.nmap.org/nmap $ cd nmap $ ./configure && make && make check $ cd .. $ mv nmap nmap-$(./nmap/nmap --version | awk '/^Nmap version/{print $3}') $ cd nmap-* $ sudo checkinstall Then follow the prompts.
