Table of Contents
While working on the Network Security Toolkit project, we have created numerous
scripts. This document serves as a reference to each of the
scripts found under the src/scripts
directory. Unfortunately, many of our scripts were created prior
to the src/scripts
directory paradigm. Hence
this document only references a subset of the entire collection of
NST scripts.
We classify NST scripts into the following categories:
The generic NST scripts (like urlcache) are
designed such that they should work on most Unix based
systems having /bin/bash
version
2.05b.0 or later installed. Even if you aren't a NST
user, you may find some of these scripts valuable (at some
point, we may create a
nstscripts-40.noarch.rpm
so
these scripts could be installed on ANY
RPM based Linux distribution).
The NST Distribution scripts (like setup_metasploit) are designed to work on a live NST system. Though they are not intended to work outside of a NST distribution, you are free to copy them and edit them for use on a non-NST distribution.
The NST Development scripts (like nstnewscript) are designed to work on a NST development system. These are intended to make the life of a NST developer simpler and are typically of very little interest to the world at large. Though they are not intended to work outside of a NST development system, you are free to copy and edit them as you see fit.
