Hi,
You're trying to use the manager protocol, which is used by the
openvasmd not openvassd. Communicating with openvassd directly (over
OTP) is for internal usage and is not recommended for external clients
as it may change at any time.
Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to communicate directly with
Openvassd
using the OSP protocol (formerly known as OTP, if I understand
correctly).
According to the docs [1], "<get_version/>" is part of the OSP API,
which
is why I'm puzzled it doesn't work. Note that I'm writing a daemon
that
replaces Openvasmd, which is why using OMP or relying on Openvasmd is
not
an option.
Best regards,

openvassd still uses OTP. It is the ospd-* scanners that use the OSP
protocol. If you're still interested in communicating directly with
openvassd, here is a little example on how to do it:
$ echo -en '< OTP/2.0 >\nCLIENT <|> NVT_INFO\n' | ncat -U
/usr/var/run/openvassd.sock
You can find some very outdated OTP documentation here [1].
