The messages go from the Scanner to the Manager. The Manager stores the messages as reports, and assigns unique IDs to the reports. These IDs are a Manager side concept though, the Scanner has no knowledge of them. I guess you could make a plugin that puts an ID in the KB early in the scan. Then other plugins could use that. Depends what you need a unique field for, though. -- Greenbone Networks GmbH Neuer Graben 17, 49074 Osnabrueck, Germany | AG Osnabrueck, HR B 202460 Executive Directors: Lukas Grunwald, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner _______________________________________________ Openvas-plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wald.intevation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openvas-plugins
