Removed showSSHVersion.nse

Hi all. After discussions with David today, we decided to remove the simple showSSHVersion.nse script. Its only real claim to fame was the ability to trick some SSH servers (including at least OpenSSH 4.3p2-9etch3) into not logging the connection. This is a neat trick, but doesn't seem to work with newer versions of OpenSSH, as my openssh-server-4.7p1-4.fc8 does log the connection. Without the stealth advantage, the script has no real benefit over version detection or the upcoming banner grabbing script. So I've deleted it for now. But if anyone actually wants or uses this script, please speak up. Cheers, -F _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
