failed to determine route on Macbook Air

[Dion Stempfley <dtsonline () verizon net>]

I did a search but didn't find anything that exactly relates to my  
problem.  Please forgive if this has been addressed in the past.

I am testing nmap 4.76 on my Macbook Air and I noticed an interesting  
problem.  I'm testing scans over the wireless interface.  When I  
initially run a scan using root, I get an error.  If I run the same  
command as a user and then try again as root it succeeds.  Any  
thoughts on the inconsistency?
