to read.")

#define HLP_SCAN_OPT_PING \
_("If this option is checked, then Nessus Server will send \
some TCP packets to the target host to determine if the target host \
is alive. This method does not use ICMP as ICMP is unreliable as less \
and less hosts are answering to ICMP echo requests.")

lookup on the IP addresses before it tests them. This may \
slow down the whole test.")

turn this option ON, so that \
Nessus Server will perform some additional tests to check \
that the remote firewall is well \
configured (this option is still experimental).")

_("Security tests may ask the Nessus Server to be \
launched if and only if some information gathered by other \

make Nessus Server miss some vulnerability. If you are paranoid, \
disable this option")

_("Some security checks may harm the target server, by \
disabling the remote service temporarily or until \
a reboot. If you enable this option, Nessus Server will \
rely on banners instead of actually performing \
a security check. You will obtain a less reliable \
report, but you will less likely disrupt the network users \
by doing a test. From a security point of view, we \
recommend you disable this option. From a sysadmin \
point of view, we recommand you enable it.")

Put \"-1\" for no portscan, or put \"default\" to scan the default ports \
in the Nessus services file.")

#define HLP_UNSCANNED_CLOSED \
_("To save scanning time, you may ask Nessus Server to declare \
TCP ports it did not scan as closed. This will result in an incomplete audit \
but it will reduce scanning time and prevent Nessus Server from sending \
packets to ports you did not specify. \
If this option is disabled, then Nessus Server will consider ports whose \
state it does not know as open.")

'/cgi-bin:/cgi-aws:/~deraison/cgi'.")
