I just realised we need a third ping option: -P0: nmap scans all hosts without trying to ping them default: nmap scans hosts that answers ping (ICMP or TCP80) *new option*: ping as default, but only scan hosts NOT answering ping. That way I can set up two parallell sessions when scanning a net. Alternativelly (or additionally) there could be an option to first scan the hosts that answers ping, then the rest. Comments? I might implement this myself, but then I need input on option syntax. Someone more in the loop might find this extremely easy to implement, if so please do :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- For help using this (nmap-dev) mailing list, send a blank email to nmap-dev-help () insecure org .
