Do the plugins scan for outdated versions of 3rd party software and missing OS patches? I would assume the credentialed scans would detect those missing and I would see results. Reason why I ask is because this is why I assume my credentialed scans don't work. I am not seeing any of this information and my non-credentialed and credentialed scans report back the same results.

I have tried four different credentials on MANY different machines and even a local laptop with a VERY generic password. Results are always the same and never do anything differently. I do see a 2014 and 2013 folder in the plugins folder. Do those get used? Are those for the 3rd party and windows updates?

I think its not able login to the target machine, If its able to login
then sure it will
detect all new and outdated vulnerable versions.

Please have a look at,
http://www.greenbone.net/learningcenter/auth_scans.html

Whatever sub directories are present in plugins directory those will be
get used,
These are the only conventions to plugins which are developed in
respective year.

Your report should have the following(if login success)

WINDOWS:
Summary
This script attempts to logon into the remote host using login/password
credentials.
Vulnerability Detection Result
It was possible to log into the remote host using the SMB protocol.
Log Method
Details: SMB log in (OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.10394)

LINUX:
Summary
This script tries to login with provided credentials.
If the login was successful, it marks this port as available for any
authenticated tests.
Vulnerability Detection Result
It was possible to login using the provided SSH credentials.
Hence authenticated checks are enabled.
Log Method
Details: SSH Authorization Check (OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.90022)

Please let me if it not works.

Thanks,

Is there a .log file I can check to see because I KNOW my credentials work. I have tested them with another system and verified they work remotely. I also already did everything on that website as well as a test, and still getting same results. ☹ I need to see or have a debug option turned on so I can see what’s going on.
