you are missing the point A BIG CUSTOMER has a security-expert

Tell your customer to ask for their money back. Offer to set up a test server that their fustercluck of a scanner will claim to be vulnerable, yet is not.

Or, better yet, tell your customer that you'll be happy to set up a server that'll pass their nonsense of a scan, yet is vulnerable to some old exploit.
