I've upgraded the libdnet shipped with Nmap (libdnet-stripped) to v1.12.

I've tested it on Windows XP and Linux and it works great.  Fyodor has tested
it on 2 Linux boxes with success.

It works fine for me on GNU/Linux and Windows XP.


Great!

WRT some of the changes for Windows[1], it has been kept much like vanilla
1.12.  eth_open() isn't modified (since it's been changed upstream), and
eth_get_pcap_devname() has been cut down to match against just hardware
addresses instead of IPs first.  I've tested scanning under Windows with no
problem, and using --iflist with vanilla Nmap 4.76 and an Nmap with the new
libdnet yield the exact same results.

That's great. It seemed to be the right approach to me so I'm glad it
works.


I am too.  And thanks for your previous posts on the Windows changes, they
were quite insightful.
