Reading the manual of port scanning techniques i found a bad
traslation/error at this URL
https://nmap.org/man/es/man-port-scanning-techniques.html. At the "-sN;
-sF; -sX (sondeos TCP Null, FIN, y Xmas) " scanning technique,  says: "Si
no se recibe ninguna respuesta el puerto se marca como *cerrado*|filtrado.
" and *must be* "Si no se recibe ninguna respuesta el puerto se marca
como *abierto*|filtrado."

Hope i have helped improving the Spanish manual of this useful tool.


Thanks Pepe.  I've updated that XML source file as you suggested.  Next
time we do a regeneration, the nroff (man page) format will be updated and
then the web site.  It may take some days/weeks though.

Ideally I think those literals should be in English like "open|filtered"
since that's what users will see in Nmap output.  But I left them in
Spanish for now because I don't have time to fix the whole file and
changing just those two literals would probably add more confusion than
help.

Cheers,
Fyodor
