Some NVTs rely on wmi, but not yet the majority of Windows tests. Those are using the builin-NASL protocol implementation. However, this is eventually subject to change and we will have a library that covers all of the Windows communication protocols and therefore will be clearly beyond just "nice to have". -- Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner | +49-541-335084-0 | http://www.greenbone.net/ Greenbone Networks GmbH, Neuer Graben 17, 49074 Osnabrück | AG Osnabrück, HR B 202460 Geschäftsführer: Lukas Grunwald, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner _______________________________________________ Openvas-discuss mailing list Openvas-discuss@wald.intevation.org https://lists.wald.intevation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openvas-discuss
