Dear All,

I can't find a reliable way to use the "Supported SSL Ciphers Suites
plugin" against a https:443 webserver
http://www.nessus.org/plugins/index.php?view=single&id=21643

Please note I'm a nessus newbie

First, I understood that the plugin is not executed if the port
scanner doesn't detect the 443 port.
And this is the start of my nightmare

I only activated the plugin (21643)

Port scanner range : 443
Consider unscanned ports as closed : unchecked
Nessus TCP scanner : Checked
Ping the remote host : Checked

This didn't work, in fact, port scanner range was not taken into account.

The only way I got the scanner to detect port 443 was to check Syn
Scan box. Then, once again, the port scanner range is not taken into
account, but a huge number of ports are scanned (including 443!). The
plugin worked then.

This is a Windows nessus 3.2.1.1 with the plugins updated today.

Do you have an idea about what is my problem, I'd like to use it
without this scan port thant includes a huge number of ports.

Thanks,

David
