Re: Accessing Information Between Scripts

[Toni Ruottu <toni.ruottu () iki fi>]

You also need to modify your if as follows...

if (nmap.registry.status[1] == 200)

Note that this will only check one of the status values. If you are
scanning multiple servers you may want to check all status values in a
loop.
