Yes, the port list does contain this port. I just did a tcpdump on the host 
that was tested by the scanner, and the scanner pinged the host twice and then 
generated the 3-way handshake to the obscure port, and then reset the 
connection. There was no more traffic, and the scan was done. The scanner 
performed no tests on this system. Here is the report results:

 

0 results

Empty reports can happen for the following reasons:

*       The target hosts where regarded dead.
*       The filter does not match any result.
*       A very small or non-verbose scan configuration was applied.

 However, this report contains 1 host.

Having just setup OpenVAS, I test scanned the local machine, and a couple 
issues were noted. I tried to scan my server that is only listening on two 
obscure ports, and I setup a port list with only these two ports in it, bound 
it to a target (the IP of this host), and then I ran a “full and fast” scan. 
The scan finishes very fast – about 2 minutes, and the report comes back with 
no open ports, the severity shows N/A, the report shows “0 results”, but it 
does show “However, this report contains 1 host.” I’m not sure if nmap could be 
a problem, since running ./openvas-check-setup yield the following:

 

        WARNING: Your version of nmap is not fully supported: 6.47

        SUGGEST: You should install nmap 5.51 if you plan to use the nmap NSE 
NVTs.

 

I’ve seen various posts commenting on this, but I’ve not found a resolution. 
Can anyone throw some ideas at me as to what I might try? Thanks
