Restore/Extract from Knowledge Base
|
|
Hi, I have a large scan that was terminated shortly before it would normally have completed. I'm hoping to somehow extract the data stored in the KBS to assemble a usable NBE. I've modified my nessusrc as follows: kb_restore = yes save_knowledge_base = yes only_test_hosts_whose_kb_we_dont_have = no only_test_hosts_whose_kb_we_have = yes kb_dont_replay_scanners = yes kb_dont_replay_info_gathering = yes kb_dont_replay_attacks = yes kb_dont_replay_denials = yes kb_max_age = 864000 I then kick of the scan again using the modified nessusrc file. Unfortunately, when it completes the only results present for each host are from check_ports.nasl (i.e. "The following ports were open at the beginning of the scan but are now closed:"). Why is check_ports not just relying on the KBS? I'm no longer on the test network, so if it actually tries to check a host's status it is obviously not going to work. Any suggestions on how to get this data into a usable form would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Joe
