Hi Vag,

fastnmap.pl (and corresponding supporting scripts including nwpn.pl)
are scripts I wrote several years back and haven't maintained in the
last two years.

fastnmap.pl is designed for managing very big scans.  For example, if
you wanted to scan every host in a /16 on all ports, fastnmap.pl allows
you to slice this job up and does deadline scheduling to complete the
scan in some target timespan.  Is this what you're trying to do?

I'd suggest describing what you're trying to accomplish with Nmap and
then maybe one of us can help.  It's unlikely that fastnmap.pl is the
right tool for your job.

Regards,

Brandon
