Noob metasploit doubt

[hyrasx]

I was checking the metasploit tools and with ./module_ports.rb (which lists the exploits by the port they use) I get 156 exploits, and with ./module_targets.rb (which lists the target for each exploit) I get 1280 exploits, does this mean that only 156 exploits use ports to "exploit"? What are the other 1124 for, all for local use?

If you're brand new to metasploit and/or ruby programming, I'd stick with the msfconsole. The help inside metasploit is pretty good (use ? or help to get it). Commands "search", "show", and "info" will give you lots of detail on all the goodies metasploit has to offer.
