The installed nmap runs fine (but so did the one macports built for me, so that wasn't an issue). Zenmap, however, claims to not know how to run on my architecture. I captured a screenshot: http://acm.wwu.edu/~bensonk/zenmap_error.png I'm not sure what exactly is wrong, but I'm guessing it's just a typo or something silly in an XML config file.
You may be right about that. What happens if you run /Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/MacOS/zenmap in a terminal? I have a suspicion as to why this might be happening. If you look inside Zenmap.app (control-click and select "Show Package Contents"), and "Get Info" on the files in Contents/MacOS, you will see that "python" is a "Unix Executable File (Universal)" while "zenmap" is just a "Unix Executable File". ("zenmap.bin" is also a "Unix Executable File (Universal)", but Finder shows it as a compressed archive because of its extension.) If you "Get Info" on Zenmap.app, you see that it's considered an "Application", not an "Application (Universal)", perhaps because of the supposedly non-universal "zenmap". "zenmap" is just a plain Python script, no not architecture-dependent at all. I don't know why a G4 Mac would assume it can't open it.
