RE: script scanning question

Hi Aaron,

To confirm that the script engine runs successfully, try using -v so Nmap
displays verbose output. You should then see something like:

SCRIPT ENGINE: Initiating script scanning.
Initiating SCRIPT ENGINE at 16:35
Completed SCRIPT ENGINE at 16:36, 30.10s elapsed

The script you chose appears to only add information to the scan results if
the service is vulnerable.

Subject: script scanning question

I was attempting to test out some NSE scripts included w/ nmap 4.68.

I used the following command: myrootprompt# nmap --
script=/usr/local/share/nmap/scripts/RealVNC_auth_bypass.nse target_ip
(This is the hard path to where nmap's scripts are installed on my box)

What I got was a simple Syn scan as a result:

Starting Nmap 4.68 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2008-07-15 07:43 PDT
Interesting ports on target_ip:
Not shown: 1710 closed ports
PORT     STATE SERVICE
135/tcp  open  msrpc
139/tcp  open  netbios-ssn
445/tcp  open  microsoft-ds
5800/tcp open  vnc-http
5900/tcp open  vnc

I looked at the reference guide at: http://nmap.org/book/man-nse.html
and
I looked at the man page provided and I looked at the examples at
http://nmap.org/book/nse-usage.html

It appears my command should be valid yet nmap doesn't appear to run
the script.
What am I missing?

Thanks,
Aaron
