OpenBSD 2.4, LOARDEON

[Fyodor <fyodor () dhp com>]

Hello all,

First, there is good news on the openBSD front.  Job de Haas kindly
tracked down the problem, and the solution is below.  If any OpenBSD 2.4
users have problems with this solution, let me know.

Our little troller LOARDEON () aol com has been unsubscribed and added to the
ezmlm shit list.  And here is a quick trivia fact I noticed while deciding
whether to bann all of aol.com from the list (I didn't): nmap-hackers has
more users from nasa.gov than aol.com.  Same with cisco.com . This is a
good thing -- Cisco and NASA generally aren't mailing list trouble makers.

Cheers,
Fyodor

Hi,

The reason the -sT fails is that in nmap.c line 2548:

      res = send(current->sd[trynum], buf, 0, 0);

fails with EINVAL. Seems due to the zero length.
This works:

      res = send(current->sd[trynum], buf, 1, 0);

Regards,

Job
