Re: Re: Error when running nmap

Jo,

Windows quoting works a little differently. I don't completely
understand the rules, but essentially, single-quotes don't do what you
expect. Here's how to do it correctly:

nmap --script http-virustotal --script-args
"http-virustotal.apikey=""example"",http-virustotal.checksum=""12345"""

Generally:

1. Use "double quotes" around the entire argument to the --script-args
option. I prefer to use a space between the option and its arguments.
2. For any quotes within the argument, use """doubled"" double quotes".
