Hi all, I'm trying to setup a cron job to scan certain hosts on specific ports (output from a previously-run nmap scan), but every option I've tried just displays the help screen. Is it possible to do this from the command line? I know how to do it with a GUI client, but I'm trying to automate the process. Any assistance would be most appreciated.
