This collection of patches I am proposing greatly increases the capabilities of the -p switch,
I like the functionality of these patches. I found a small problem having to do with list scan and ping scan: ~$ ~/soc/nmap-soc07/bin/nmap -sL localhost Starting Nmap 4.21ALPHA5 ( http://insecure.org ) at 2007-05-22 23:11 MDT No ports specified -- If you really don't want to scan any ports use ping scan... QUITTING! ~$ ~/soc/nmap-soc07/bin/nmap -sP localhost Starting Nmap 4.21ALPHA5 ( http://insecure.org ) at 2007-05-22 23:11 MDT No ports specified -- If you really don't want to scan any ports use ping scan... QUITTING! The error message is printed in getpts, which before the patches wasn't called for list or ping scans. Now that function is called by gettoppts whenever an old-format services file is used. I committed a small change to getpts that doesn't print the error message when the scan is not a TCP, UDP, or protocol scan. It's in r4768 in /nmap-exp/soc07/nmap. David
