Thanks kevin. Where can I find that doc. Please give me the pointer to that doc. But why NMAP can scan the local IP address if it is the only IP in the request. I do not give "localhost" string to poll. I use actual IP address of my machine to poll my local machine. If it is issue of WinPcap, then NMAP should not be able to poll local IP at all. It's only when my IP address is part of the range, it fails. And I tried to dig more .. My IP address is 10.25.125.203. I give this request to NMAP. nmap -sS -PT -PI -O -d -vv -T 3 10.25.125.201-205 10.25.125.203 always comes as DOWN. It works for other IP addresses in the range. I tried to snoop the packets thru Ethereal. And what I deduce that I always see this stuff. Source - 10.25.125.203 Destination - 11.25.125.203 Protocol - ICMP Info - Echo (ping) reply Now I don't know from where 11.25.125.203 coming into IP packet destination address. Any answers ? ~Kevin_Davis³ <kevin.davis () mindless com> wrote: According to the docs, the windows version of Nmap can't scan the localhost and it is reported this is because of a WinPcap issue. ~Kevin Davis³ What possibly could go wrong? ----- Original Message ----- From: "micro dev" To: Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2003 8:55 PM Subject: NMAP shows local machine as down
Hi, I am having this strange problem. When I poll ONLY my local machine thru NMAP, NAMP succeeds. But when I poll a range of IP addresses which has my local IP address
also,
NMAP does not come out with any results for my local IP.It reports my
local machine as down.
Where can be the problem. I am using nmap V. 3.00. Also winpcap version is 3.0. My local machine is Windows 2000 server and has 4 CPU.
