Does the UNIX version have a "status" and "discovery" option? Perhaps this
is happening because this is only available in the NT version of NV? If so,
are there plans to port this same functionality to the UNIX version as well?

You did run nvsniffer with the status option and not the discovery option ?
It is my understanding that the status options should update the symbol
created in the node interface view.
Thanks Mark Sklenarik

Subject: "nvsniffer" updating GUI symbol colors
Should the NV for UNIX "nvsniffer" function update the node symbol color in
the NV maps under the respective NV collection?
For example, say I discovered a system running DNS (port 53) using
nvsniffer. I then shutdown DNS on the system and then run the "nvsniffer"
binary again on the same node while DNS is down on the system. Shouldn't
the symbol color in the NV map for the node in question under the specific
DNS collection symbol turn to "red"?
This is how I would like it to work, but perhaps this is nothing more than
a
wish, rather than reality to how it was designed?
If it does not work this way, is there any particular reason(s) why?
