description = [[
Attempts to enumerate valid usernames on web servers running with the mod_userdir
module or similar enabled.

The Apache mod_userdir module allows user-specific directories to be accessed
using the http://example.com/~user/ syntax.  This script makes http requests in
order to discover valid user-specific directories and infer valid usernames.  By
default, the script will use Nmap's
<code>nselib/data/usernames.lst</code>.  An HTTP response
status of 200 or 403 means the username is likely a valid one and the username
will be output in the script results along with the status code (in parentheses).

This script makes an attempt to avoid false positives by requesting a directory
which is unlikely to exist.  If the server responds with 200 or 403 then the
script will not continue testing it.

CVE-2001-1013: http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2001-1013.
