RE: making nmap video tutorial

[Aaron Leininger <rilian4 () hotmail com>]

I think your firewall is blocking ICMP echoes. I did a quick test on your port 80 and if I don't allow the initial 
ping(-PN option..assumes host is online), port 80 comes back open:

nmap -p80 -PN securityoveride.com

Starting Nmap 4.76 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2009-01-11 12:46 PST
Interesting ports on 168.97.8.67.cfl.res.rr.com (67.8.97.168):
PORT   STATE SERVICE
80/tcp open  http

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.62 seconds
root@anet:~# nmap -p80 securityoveride.com
==============================
However, if I take out the -PN option, I get the following:
nmap -p80 securityoveride.com

Starting Nmap 4.76 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2009-01-11 12:46 PST
Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes, try -PN
Nmap done: 1 IP address (0 hosts up) scanned in 3.35 seconds
==============================
I hope this makes sense. Maybe some of the other developers can explain it better...
