Thanks; it's a tool I regularly employ for vuln testing... One comment, though - your custom registry entries: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters] "MaxUserPort"=dword:0000fffe "TcpTimedWaitDelay"=dword:0000001e ..are incomplete. You should have one more value at that location: "StrictTimeWaitSeqCheck"=dword:00000001 This is required for the TcpTimedWaitDelay value to be used.
Thanks for the suggestion. This will be in the new release. Here is the CHANGELOG entry: o Modified the mswine32/nmap_performance.reg Windows registry file to use an older and more compatable version. It also now includes the value "StrictTimeWaitSeqCheck"=dword:00000001 , as suggested by Jim Harrison (jmharr(a)microsoft.com). Without that latter value, the TcpTimedWaitDelay value apparently isn't checked. Windows users should apply the new registry changes by clicking on the .reg file. Or do it manually as described in README-WIN32. This file is also now available in the data directory at http://www.insecure.org/nmap/data/nmap_performance.reg Cheers, Fyodor --------------------------------------------------------------------- For help using this (nmap-dev) mailing list, send a blank email to nmap-dev-help () insecure org .
