For the record, the Nmap project does not recommend NmapNT anymore.
This is not because we don't like it -- quite the contrary!  I have
merged Ryan Permeh's (of eEye) excellent work and that of another
Win32 Guru (Andy Lutomirski) into the main Nmap tree.  Although we
don't advertise this fact much, recent Nmap releases compile fine on
Windows.  These have several advantages over vanilla NmapNT:

* You get the latest OS fingerpritns and service file definitions
* Includes new features and bugfixes from the last year or so since
  NmapNT was released.
* Far more portable -- runs on Win95/98/ME/NT/2K and takes advantage
  of various native platform features (such as raw sockets on Win2K).

You can give this a try at http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ and grab
version 2.54BETA29 .  It inclues a file called README-WIN32 with
compilation instructions.

We don't normally distribute binaries for support reasons (and because
it is still beta), but if you have a strong preference for binaries, I
have stashed some at
http://www.insecure.org/nmap/dist/nmap-2.54BETA27-win32.zip .  Please
do not publicly redistribute or link to these BETA binaries.

You may be able to do a connect() scan w/o a reboot since that uses
the native sockets API.  If you find yourself in such a situation, try
nmap -sT -P0 <targets>.
