[Nikto-discuss] Nikto proxy support

[ale garcia]

Hey, I was wondering what happens in the scanning process when the configured proxy is unreached (for example, because it is down at the moment)? I believe the correct procedure of work would be stop the scan before it starts, but I have tested with fake proxy data and it seems to scan even when the proxy doesn't exists.
This is what i'm doing:


config.txt:

# PROXY STUFF
###############
PROXYHOST=196.40.20.82
PROXYPORT=80
#PROXYUSER=proxyuserid
#PROXYPASS=proxypassword


commandline:

$ perl nikto.pl -h xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -u

(Obviously where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address I want to scan.)


Thanks a lot.
caminante.
