open.scanme.nmap.org suggestion

[Wolfric <wolfric1 () gmail com>]

Hi Folks

What are the chances we could see basically a box out there like
scanme but with all the ports open and with a service listening (even
if it's just an echo server or redirecting everything to ssh on tcp
and udp.

This is extremely useful for testing which ports are blocked from
inside a firewalled environment however I can see how scanning 65k
ports could probably piss off whoever is hosting the server as it
would probably garner a lot more activity per user and a lot heavier
use. Sure if the load becomes too heavy you can just tank the idea and
take the domain name offline.

I myself have an amazon cloud server setup for just this and I've
found it dead handy but I thought it'd be a nice idea for nmap to have
an official one.
