That's correct. The connect message was caused by the -v flag from netcat and was basically there to prove that netcat connected each time. But regardless of the length of the random string, bittorrent didn't respond. On 8/24/07, Antonio Augusto (Mancha) <mkhaos7@gmail.com> wrote:
I think this is a bit wrong. For what i can say, the response you got "Connection to localhost 6881 port [tcp/*] succeeded!", means taht there was a server listning to that port and he answered your SYN request. This doesn't mean he answered any of the packets you sent to it.

If you care, the client is bittorrent-curses 4.4.0 on OpenBSD (it's whatIhad quick access to). I haven't tried your nasl code in Nessus, so maybe I'm missing something. But if I understand your previous post, thisshouldelicit some response from a seeding client, and in my case it doesn't.
