Run Nmap scan

(imported topic written by Bjowah91)

HI,

when I try to run the task “run nmap scan” it fails on a regset command

Completed: regset "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\BESScanner NMAP

" “LastScanFinishTime”="{now}"

Failed: regset "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\BESScanner-NMAP

" “NumberOfScansRun”="{value “NumberOfScansRun” of key “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\BESScanner-NMAP” of registry as integer + 1}"

The strange thing is the regset command right before it works like a charm.

The value it is trying to set it not present in the registry (good or bad?) but it does not look like a access problem.

Can someone lead me in the right direction.

Best regards Björn Wahll

Hey Bjorn,

I believe that value needs to exist and I am not sure why it is missing. Create a string value “NumberOfScansRun” in that key and set it to “1” and it should fix the issue.

Okej thanks,

I tried on a server machine instead and then it worked.

Could be a temporary installation problem but I will, try again with this value enabled
