Really? Nmap and ethereal used to work back when this box had w2k. From the winpcap faq (15): "WinPcap does not support on SMP machines, because we don't have multiprocessor computers on which to develop/test it. For this reason, recent versions have an initialization check that prevents them to load on SMP machines." According to this, winpcap 2.3 does not even load on an SMP system unless you force it to boot with 1 processor. I think nmap has a custom version of winpcap... but winpcap 2.3 definitely does not load on my box..... I guess this is kind of OT Stou

Windows 2000 and Windows XP has built in raw socket support. I seem to remember being able to successfully run nmap without winpcap installed on Windows 2000 systems. Not sure what else your problem could be except that maybe you have some firewall rules set up to prohibit these applications from running properly. --------------------------------------- Kevin³ Davis What could possibly go wrong? kevin.davis () mindless com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stou Sandalski" <tangui () cell2000 net> To: <nmap-dev () insecure org> Sent: Saturday, May 04, 2002 6:13 AM Subject: Multi-procHas anyone had any success running nmap on SMPWinXP or W2k system?Winpcap does not work on SMP machines (I justfound out), so netherethereal nor nmap works on my primary box.
