To summarize the status of the the ssh scripts, the branch is located at /nmap-exp/devin/nmap-libssh2 and works on *nix systems. We decided to use libssh2 since ssh2 is a rather complicated protocol. One problem was that libssh2 wants to manage the socket itself and we wanted to reuse the existing nsock socket pool. Our solution was to filter the data through a socketpair and then pass the data to nsock. I found an implementation of socketpair for windows and the plan is to use that to allow windows support. I have been busy with school so I haven't gotten around to finishing this. Another problem was that calls to the nsock receive would sometimes return EOF. We think this is related to filtering the data through the socketpair but neither my mentor Patrick nor I have been able to get to the bottom of this yet. In the mean time the scripts are useable though the brute force script has poor performance compared to alternatives. See the email d33tah linked to for usage instructions.

I really like the idea and would really like to work on it. Please share some information if already some work is going on.Hello, Generally, I would suggest to flick through the mailing list archives since GSoC 2014. Here's one thread I remember:
