using nmap to guess remote OS and probe service details on a single port only
- by WoJ
I am looking at scanning with nmap a large network in order to
identify the OS of devices (-O--osscan-limit)
probe for details of a service on a single port (I would have used -sV for all open ports)
The problem is that -sV will probe all the ports (which I do not want to do for performance reasons) and I cannot use -p to limit the ports to the one I am interested in as this impacts the OS fingerprinting. I could not find anything in the manual to limit the service probing.
Thank you for any ideas (including other approaches outside of nmap, though I would prefer to stick to nmap)
