Ok, so as it appears _all_ of the OpenVAS default scanner configs use a default scan mode of TCP Connect (connect()). I see that what I need to do for my fast scans that are firewalled, is to clone an existing scan config, alter the clone, change the TCP Scanning Technique" to SYN then use that clone in my scans.
I've done this with the Full and Fast scan config, and double checked more than once, yet when I run my task (even after restarting openvas) using my newly cloned scan config, I see it is still passing the tcp connect flag (-sT) to nmap: nmap -n -P0 -oG /tmp/nmap-10.10.1.1-1598147081 -sT -sU -p T:1-5,7..... The only thing that works for me is to edit the nmap.nasl file and change: else argv[i++] = "-sT"; to else argv[i++] = "-sS"; Any help would be appreciated.... ONE OTHER OFF TOPIC FEATURE REQUEST: If someone could move the garbage can icon as far away from the wrench icon as possible, it would be much appreciated. It's a little like having the nuclear missile launch button right beside the channel up button on your TV remote... Thanks, Ted
