Only execute port_scan module on a local vm(metasploitable 2)

[dathtd119]

OSes and version: Kali Linux 2023.04 WSL2 & Ubuntu Core 22.04

Python Version: 3.11.8

---

I Tried with those module names:

• all, *_scan : These will just run the port_scan

• *_vuln : This even crazier, it just returned:

   this scan module [*_vuln] not found!
  

I tried git clone, get the zip then unzip. reinstall WSL and VM but no work 😭

If it was because of the local ip, wrong way to input ip instead of url, just let me know!
p/s: I also tried with http://[ip]/ but still not help anything

[dathtd119]

Crazy how I just read the previous issue #817 , look at the comment from @securestep9, add the --skip-service-discovery and it just solved my problem.

By the way we should add --skip-service-discovery to the Usage Wiki, It was on there, in the -h menu, but it was not in the Wiki

[securestep9]

you are right - the documentation needs updating - we are working on this
