i work with winxp sp1 and have installed today nmap 3.91 and get following msg back -> nexthost: Failed to determine dst MAC address for target x.x.x.x QUITTING! <- i have try serval ip's - always the same error - i connect to the internet via ppp (gprs/umts modem card)
I'm afraid that Nmap doesn't fully support PPP on Windows anymore thanks to @#$!@ Microsoft breaking raw sockets. HOWEVER, Nmap should definitely give a better error message that badmouths Microsoft and gives pointers to options that should still work. This is a great chance to use the new --iflist debugging option in Nmap 3.91! Would you please run 'nmap --iflist' and send me the output? That will help me determine how your device is detected so that Nmap can better recognize it. Also, does the scan "nmap -P0 -sT -d -T4 scanme.nmap.org" work for you? If not, please send me the output. Thanks, Fyodor _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev
