I downloaded the new mssql_version.nasl this morning. I had to hack it around a little to make it work on 1.0.10 which is the version I am still running. However, it appears to have a flaw - not so much in the script itself, more the fact that it appears that all versions of SQL Server 2000 return a version string of 8.00.194 in response to the SQL ping. Even those that the admins swear blind are patched with SP3.

Was mssql_version.nasl deleted from the plugins list? Attempting to get the file (either via the nessus-update-plugins script or via http://www.nessus.org/nasl/mssql_version.nasl) results in a 404 Not Found error...
 
Also, plugin 10674 (mssql_ping.nasl) also reports a SQL Server 2000 SP3 server as 8.00.194. I verified that it is SP3 myself .
 
Any clues?
