effectively you have a directory on some server containing all the plugin files. To be 100% comfortable with whatever internet restrictions an OpenVAS user might have you should simply make this feed directory available with rsync, ftp and http. If you use a Apache with it's directory-index feature somebody could use a recursive wget, curl or BSD fetch to retrieve all plugins. If you configure your HTTP server to set the correct HTTP headers derived from the plugin files timestamp tools like wget etc. are intelligent enough to skip downloading all those files if they are started in mirror-mode.
To be super comfortable, you should supply a sample call for wget, curl and fetch in mirror mode, along with a sample call to rsync. -- Dirk Jagdmann <d.jagdm...@dn-systems.de> : Coder Tel. +49-5121-28989-15 -- DN-Systems Enterprise Internet Solutions GmbH Hornemannstr. 11 31137 Hildesheim, Germany Tel. +49-5121-28989-0 Fax. +49-5121-28989-11 Handelsregister HRB-3213 Amtsgericht Hildesheim Geschäftsführer: Lukas Grunwald _______________________________________________ Openvas-devel mailing list Openvas-devel@wald.intevation.org http://lists.wald.intevation.org/mailman/listinfo/openvas-devel
