NMAP Transforms, I just can't get them to work???

[dkeeber]

I installed Python, and the required librarys.

I added the new-local transform (nmapports.py) for example.

When I attempt to use it, I get an error that states
Error parsing transform output. The received output is not valid:
ParseError at [row,col]:[1,1]
Message: Premature end of file.

I'm sure I did something wrong but I have read through the installation multiple times and I just don't see where theres anything else I can do differently.

Hey,

That error is generally because of the transform settings being wrong (ie, your path to python, or the filename is not in the parameters). Try it from command line perhaps, in the format of:

<workingdirectory>:\ <command> <parameters> <entity>

Where entity is something like 127.0.0.1#

Let me know how it goes
