Subject: [Openvas-plugins] Handling for NASL_LEVEL probably needed
Message-ID: <200802042235.12848.jan-oliver.wagner@intevation.de>

Hello,

it occurs that for allowing to use our further developed
NASL scripts with good old Nessus might cause problems
because we haven't changed "NASL_LEVEL" (openvas-libnasl/include/nasl.h)
and thus do not allow for if-then-else conditions.
AFAIU, we changed the behaviour of rsa_sign function
which would have effect on ssh_func.inc to generalize
for use with OpenVAS and Nessus.

I am not sure how to proceed with this, perhaps
we simply increase NASL_LEVEL by a considerable high number
(e.g. -> 10000 (currently is 2005)) to avoid potential conflicts
with updates in the proprietary Nessus.
Eventually we need to find a better, more consitent solution. But
I do not have a proposal at hand.
If anyone has, please let us know. Else should we just apply a big
number for the time being?

Best

	Jan

typo: it is currently 2205.
