Im using the command "nmap -sn -R x.x.x.x/24" to get a list of all host up in the network. While it works fine on a linux machine including DNS names, I observe the following on a windows : (command modified a little to explain the issue) DNS name resolution skips hosts here and there ( usually all alternate host names are dropped) [image: Inline image 1] Any idea why this happens or is there a workaround? Thanks! Guru
Hi, I don't think it's a defect. Use -R if you want DNS resolution to be always done, -n to disable it (as man said, default is "sometimes").
