Re: All tcp ports open?

["Andres Riancho" <andresit () fibertel com ar>]

Ben ,
    What about "nmap -sV" ?  this will still give you a complete list of
open ports , but also will retrieve the banners. I think it should be safe
to say that any *real* program will respond with a banner , so ,only the
ports with banners will be the ones you should pen-test.
