nmap..... via web

[Erik Parker <netmask () 303 org>]

I'd like to setup nmap, for OS guessing, via a web form. Mainly so people
within my company, can goto the web, type a host, it will try to guess its
OS, and return it to them. As for for a cgi, or webform, or whatever needs
to be done, I can have someone else figure that out. 

My to concerns are, What security problems should I expect.. if any..
The site would be restricted via htaccess, for the fact it is a possible
DOS that ppl could do.

Second, apache runs as nobody.. Need root to do a tcp fingerprint.. Any
ideas on that?

Cheers,
Erik
