Has anyone tested the Win32 version of nmap.exe on XP pro?

Works inconsistantly for me...



Works fine here. It may be a problem with the order of devices.
Some libpcap programs (nmap included AFAICS) blindly uses the first interface only (which may be a IPv6 tunneling interface).

which in my case happens to be the physical adapter first
(the "{93..}") and the MS tunnel adapter second.

Try some of the other '--win' options. Use "nmap --win_help"
to show them.

I don't buy this. nmap uses the windows routing tables in a (hopefully) sensible manner that i seriously doubt is broken on XP. I don't know what's wrong, but I really ought to get around to fixing it.

Anyone have any ideas, or is it just time for me bust out Ethereal and the debugger?
