Nmap Development: broadcast-dropbox-listener script is broken in 6.25 and SVN

[Dhiru Kholia <dhiru.kholia () gmail com>]

Hi,

broadcast-dropbox-listener script is broken in 6.25 and SVN.

Command used:  nmap -d -p17500 --script-trace
--script=broadcast-dropbox-listener --script-args=newtargets -Pn

1. broadcast-dropbox-listener script worked best under Nmap 5.51

Pre-scan script results:
| broadcast-dropbox-listener:
| displayname  ip             port   version  host_int   namespaces
|_429883020    192.168.2.253  17500  1.8      429883020  194083623
Nmap scan report for 192.168.2.253
Host is up (0.0054s latency).
PORT      STATE SERVICE

Newer version like 6.0 don't show "Pre-scan script results" which is
super useful.

2. broadcast-dropbox-listener script works partially under Nmap 6.00

Nmap scan report for 192.168.2.253
Host is up (0.0054s latency).
PORT      STATE SERVICE
17500/tcp open  db-lsp

NSOCK (40.0730s) nsi_delete (IOD #2)

Reverting commit "2404fc7d647" partially fixes the problem and we get
behaviour similar to point 2.

However, it would be best if we could get  "Pre-scan script results"
too. "host_int" value is useful in "hijacking" Dropbox accounts.
