I posted the following message more than a week ago but received no response. I was hoping someone would comment on the usefulness of a more general method to specify a list of hosts in an external file for decoys, DNS servers, etc.. The original post follows: ========== Is there a general mechanism for specifying a list of hosts for other options aside from "-iL targets.txt"? For example, the options "--dns-servers" and "-D" both accept a list of hosts - but I don't believe that you have the flexibility to specify a list of decoys (such as --dns-serversL dns.txt or -DL decoys.txt). It seems that this could be very useful for a person who has already compiled a list of decoys. The command-line syntax would be less cluttered. Cory
Didn't Brandon post a reply? I seem to recall seeing one, but I might be confused. In any case, what advantage would there be to using known decoys instead of random ones? I personally don't see any advantage, but I could easily be missing something. -- Ron Bowes http://www.skullsecurity.org/ _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
