# * Note that the GPL places important restrictions on "derivative works", *

# * yet it does not provide a detailed definition of that term. To avoid *
|
||||
# * misunderstandings, we interpret that term as broadly as copyright law *
|
||||
# * allows. For example, we consider an application to constitute a *
|
||||
# * "derivative work" for the purpose of this license if it does any of the *
|
||||
# * following: *
|
||||
# * o Integrates source code from Nmap *
|
||||
# * o Reads or includes Nmap copyrighted data files, such as *
|
||||
# * nmap-os-db or nmap-service-probes. *
|
||||
# * o Executes Nmap and parses the results (as opposed to typical shell or *
|
||||
# * execution-menu apps, which simply display raw Nmap output and so are *
|
||||
# * not derivative works.) *
|
||||
# * o Integrates/includes/aggregates Nmap into a proprietary executable *
|
||||
# * installer, such as those produced by InstallShield. *
|
||||
# * o Links to a library or executes a program that does any of the above *
|
||||
# * derivative work for the purpose of this license if it does any of the *
|
||||
# * following with any software or content covered by this license *
|
||||
# * ("Covered Software"): *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * The term "Nmap" should be taken to also include any portions or derived *
|
||||
# * works of Nmap, as well as other software we distribute under this *
|
||||
# * license such as Zenmap, Ncat, and Nping. This list is not exclusive, *
|
||||
# * but is meant to clarify our interpretation of derived works with some *
|
||||
# * common examples. Our interpretation applies only to Nmap--we don't *
|
||||
# * speak for other people's GPL works. *
|
||||
# * o Integrates source code from Covered Software. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * If you have any questions about the GPL licensing restrictions on using *
|
||||
# * Nmap in non-GPL works, we would be happy to help. As mentioned above, *
|
||||
# * we also offer alternative license to integrate Nmap into proprietary *
|
||||
# * applications and appliances. These contracts have been sold to dozens *
|
||||
# * of software vendors, and generally include a perpetual license as well *
|
||||
# * as providing for priority support and updates. They also fund the *
|
||||
# * continued development of Nmap. Please email sales@insecure.com for *
|
||||
# * further information. *
|
||||
# * o Reads or includes copyrighted data files, such as Nmap's nmap-os-db *
|
||||
# * or nmap-service-probes. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * As a special exception to the GPL terms, Insecure.Com LLC grants *
|
||||
# * o Is designed specifically to execute Covered Software and parse the *
|
||||
# * results (as opposed to typical shell or execution-menu apps, which will *
|
||||
# * execute anything you tell them to). *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * o Includes Covered Software in a proprietary executable installer. The *
|
||||
# * installers produced by InstallShield are an example of this. Including *
|
||||
# * Nmap with other software in compressed or archival form does not *
|
||||
# * trigger this provision, provided appropriate open source decompression *
|
||||
# * or de-archiving software is widely available for no charge. For the *
|
||||
# * purposes of this license, an installer is considered to include Covered *
|
||||
# * Software even if it actually retrieves a copy of Covered Software from *
|
||||
# * another source during runtime (such as by downloading it from the *
|
||||
# * Internet). *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * o Links (statically or dynamically) to a library which does any of the *
|
||||
# * above. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * o Executes a helper program, module, or script to do any of the above. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * This list is not exclusive, but is meant to clarify our interpretation *
|
||||
# * of derived works with some common examples. Other people may interpret *
|
||||
# * the plain GPL differently, so we consider this a special exception to *
|
||||
# * the GPL that we apply to Covered Software. Works which meet any of *
|
||||
# * these conditions must conform to all of the terms of this license, *
|
||||
# * particularly including the GPL Section 3 requirements of providing *
|
||||
# * source code and allowing free redistribution of the work as a whole. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * As another special exception to the GPL terms, Insecure.Com LLC grants *
|
||||
# * permission to link the code of this program with any version of the *
|
||||
# * OpenSSL library which is distributed under a license identical to that *
|
||||
# * listed in the included docs/licenses/OpenSSL.txt file, and distribute *
|
||||
# * linked combinations including the two. You must obey the GNU GPL in all *
|
||||
# * respects for all of the code used other than OpenSSL. If you modify *
|
||||
# * this file, you may extend this exception to your version of the file, *
|
||||
# * but you are not obligated to do so. *
|
||||
# * linked combinations including the two. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * If you received these files with a written license agreement or *
|
||||
# * contract stating terms other than the terms above, then that *
|
||||
# * alternative license agreement takes precedence over these comments. *
|
||||
# * Any redistribution of Covered Software, including any derived works, *
|
||||
# * must obey and carry forward all of the terms of this license, including *
|
||||
# * obeying all GPL rules and restrictions. For example, source code of *
|
||||
# * the whole work must be provided and free redistribution must be *
|
||||
# * allowed. All GPL references to "this License", are to be treated as *
|
||||
# * including the terms and conditions of this license text as well. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * Because this license imposes special exceptions to the GPL, Covered *
|
||||
# * Work may not be combined (even as part of a larger work) with plain GPL *
|
||||
# * software. The terms, conditions, and exceptions of this license must *
|
||||
# * be included as well. This license is incompatible with some other open *
|
||||
# * source licenses as well. In some cases we can relicense portions of *
|
||||
# * Nmap or grant special permissions to use it in other open source *
|
||||
# * software. Please contact fyodor@nmap.org with any such requests. *
|
||||
# * Similarly, we don't incorporate incompatible open source software into *
|
||||
# * Covered Software without special permission from the copyright holders. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * If you have any questions about the licensing restrictions on using *
|
||||
# * Nmap in other works, are happy to help. As mentioned above, we also *
|
||||
# * offer alternative license to integrate Nmap into proprietary *
|
||||
# * applications and appliances. These contracts have been sold to dozens *
|
||||
# * of software vendors, and generally include a perpetual license as well *
|
||||
# * as providing for priority support and updates. They also fund the *
|
||||
# * continued development of Nmap. Please email sales@nmap.com for further *
|
||||
# * information. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * If you have received a written license agreement or contract for *
|
||||
# * Covered Software stating terms other than these, you may choose to use *
|
||||
# * and redistribute Covered Software under those terms instead of these. *
|
||||
# * *
|
||||
# * Source is provided to this software because we believe users have a *
|
||||
# * right to know exactly what a program is going to do before they run it. *
