Plugin 11835 is subject to returning false positives when the network is busy, maybe also when the machine is busy. I'd suggest reducing the number of concurrent scans by 10% and see if that helps.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 May 2004 16:09 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RPC False Positives? I have a group of WindowsNT PCs that are patched for MS03-039, RPC, and confirmed with Shavliks HFNetCheck. They are using the same disk image as a larger group. But about 10 percent of them are consistently showing vulnerable to Plugin 11835. If these were false positives, would not the same group of PCs not show up on every scan. Or is this indicative that the PCs are truly vulnerable for some reason. Daniel J.
