Have you tried or looked into using CVS (Version Control System) for this? Not sure exactly what you want to track, but if just some notation, could use a simple CSV (Comma Separated Variable) file, or a more informative way would be via a database, using PostgreSQL or MySQL.

Thanks for the reply, ... CVS is not on my needs, I want to track the version. For instance, with nmap I can use :

nektar@skywalker:~$ nmap -A -T4 -p80 www.unix.com | grep open
80/tcp open http Apache httpd 1.3.28 ((Unix) PHP/4.3.10)

and I can obtain the version and modules used by apache, I want something like this but centralized, so I can then link platforms, software with new advisories and nessus reports. Is it clear?


Thanks in advance!
