Re: Scanning tool that will track and report diffs

I am almost finished with a utility that uses nmap that stores data in a
MySQL server, should hopefully be done this weekend. Its just a small
utility, not big and bulky, simply notifies if a system that was
previously scanned is down, if new systems came up, and what ports have
changed on the systems.
