NetBIOS checks on NT - problem?

Subject: NetBIOS checks on NT - problem?
Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 11:02:49 -0500
Hello,

I need to scan a host for common NBT problems on tcp/139. 
All SMB/NBT plugins "script_require_ports(139, 445)" - but 445 isn't
open on this host (NT host).

I assume there are issues when scanning 139 and 445 at the same time
(hence the no_simul_ports directive). Do these issues imply that we need
445 open to test 139 effectively?

I realize I can turn off optimize_test - but I would rather not.

Thanks!

-- Brent
