I have come across a site and Nessus reports

"The following directories have FrontPage enabled, but are not password protected"

I looked at the *.nasl yet was wondering is there a way to test / prove the findings w/o having MS FrontPage s/w? Is there a scripted method maybe with nc and or a curl shell script?

Thanks Don W.
