nmap.receive_bytes functions. It claimed that if you don't get all the lines/bytes you request before a timeout, then a "TIMEOUT" error happens. In reality you get back data as long as at least one byte was received before the timeout. From nsock_readlines: /* Read up to nlines lines (terminated with \n, which of course inclues \r\n), or until EOF, or until the timeout, whichever comes first. Note that NSE_STATUS_SUCCESS will be returned in the case of EOF or tiemout if at least 1 char has been read. Also note that you may get more than 'nlines' back -- we just stop once "at least" 'nlines' is read */
Here is some documentation for Nmap, but these files are much less comprehensive than what you'll find at the actual Nmap documentation site ( http://nmap.org ).
