On a recent scan at a client, Nessus 2.6x with current plugins (02/09/2006) finds thin clients (e.g. Wyse or Neoware dumb terminals) and classifies them as Windows CE, or Windows 95.
Is there a way to bypass these type of terminals during a scan since they generally pose no security risks to a client?

Please let me/us know of any specific differences, especially where the new version is missing things. Make sure you're working with the same set of plugins and the same scan configurations (eg, login credentials, port scanners, port ranges, etc).
