George it would appear that I mistook preferences as being all server
preferences because in the stream that comes from the server all the
preferences (both server and plugin) are contained within a server
preference tag.

Either way, there is still a difference in the number of preferences in
total. I shall investigate this further.

Cheers

As a side note, the client used to download 151 server preferences and now
only downloads 137. I am wondering if this has to do with the switches

the client to the server.


Either number sounds too high for purely server preferences; there are
only a couple dozen of those.

As for plugin preferences, those are based on the plugins actually
loaded by the server using the NASL function script_add_preference(),
not switches passed from a client.
