I have come across some DNS server (probably LAN Suite 602 on Windows server,
but who knows...) that was not fingerprinted by Nessus, nor it was a message in
the report that it couldn't be fingerprinted etc.
So I increased the magic constant "3" in dns_fingerprint.nasl:
54 function probe(message)
...
62 if ( ! r ) { timeouts ++; if (timeouts > 3) exit(0); return "t:";}
^
and the result is:
1:t:t:t:t:t:t:t:0X:0X:t:0X:15X:0Z0X:0X:0X:t:t:t:0X:0X:4:t:
So the magic constant "3" should be upgraded to "12" ?
