[Q] Undocumented function in NASL?

Post #1 of 3 (835 views)

I have refered to NASL reference guide (http://www.nessus.org/doc/nasl.html)
nowadays when I want to add or edit NASL script.
But, I've found that there are some undocumented functions, for example,
script_timeout, open_priv_soc_tcp..
I want to know where I can find the full description of NASL function,
library....

If you know it, can I share the infomation?

Thank you!

Bye~

It's been discussed before, but the location is....libnasl/nasl/init.c

You should read libnasl/doc/nasl_guide.tex (compile it using 'make' to
obtain a nice .ps file). It's far more up-to-date.
