Hi Thomas. Thanks for the patch. Sorry it took 3 months to reply :(. Anyway, if you can change your patch to using timing_level() rather than timing() and you add documentation in docs/nse.xml, I'd be happy to apply it. I agree that some scripts might find this useful. Cheers, -FAlright, here's a patch with the name change and documentation you requested. I ended up editing docs/scripting.xml, but I think that's what you meant. :) Thanks, Thomas
Hi all, I've just been looking at a host that would allow connections to tcp:80, but nothing more. Neither showHTMLtitle.nse nor robots.nse set a timeout for their HTTP GET requests and rely on the default of 30s. I was thinking of submitting patches using "timing_level()", but it's not yet in play. So my questions: What's the current status of Thomas' patch? Would anyone disagree with the idea of setting a timeout for those two scripts and to use timing_level() (if the patch were to be applied)? (I was thinking of something like "math.modf(25000/timing_level())" (for T1-5 ) giving 30s, 25s, 12s, 8s, 6s and 5s for T0-T5) Would it be a good or bad idea to have a default timeout for http.request() using timing_level()?
