In the case of a few of these scripts the only thing that was updated was the example text as the scripts relied on the creds library which handles the strings internally.
with modifications from [2].
** Short description from [1] **
I have created a patch to NSE that replaces runlevels with a table of
dependencies that clearly outlines what other scripts the script
depends on. The table is of the form:
dependences = {"script1", script2", ...}
Runlevels become an internal representation of the order of scripts
that are generated by the dependencies. Dependencies only enforce
an execution order and not a requirement for execution.

1) I wrote a function that formats output from scripts in a consistent way. Although we haven't really come to a concensus on how it should look yet, it's easy to change when we do.
2) New script: smb-enum-groups.nse. Enumerate the local groups on a system and their membership.
* Updated the way authentication works on smb -- it's significantly cleaner now
* smb-enum-shares.nse gives significantly better output now (it checks if shares are writable)
* Added a script that checks if smbv2 is enabled on a server
* Added smb-psexec, a script for executing commands on a remote Windows server. I also included some default scripts, a compiled .exe to run everything, and a ton of documentation (in the form of NSEDoc)
* Added 'override' parameters to some of the functions in smb.lua, which lets the programmer override any field in an outgoing SMB packet without modifying smb.lua.
* Lots of random code cleanups in the smb-* scripts/libraries
