There is a Windows NT/2000 PPTP vpn remote access server running on this port. This Warning is from pptp_detect.nasl plugin. <opinion> This should be "Information" not "Warning" The text "There is a Windows NT/2000 PPTP vpn remote access server running on this port." should be added. </opinion>
I don't know enough about PPTP to say why the protocol calls for announcing a "Firmware Revision", but it does. I have never seen this revision number be anything but useless. Perhaps other implementation of PPTP (are there any common ones?) use this and it needs to be reported. -Steve >*Warning found on port unknown (1723/tcp)* > > Firmware Revision:0 > Host name:local > Vendor string:NT > ><devil's advocate> >Is this useful information?
