As the title suggest, I'm unable to find devices/interfaces using nmap --iflist. I am also unable to do any search at all as root. Two control PCs running debian and kali with the same version found all hosts and reported no problems. The interfaces were not renamed during boot. (they are named wlan0). Here's a paste of nmap --version: https://bpaste.net/show/634f94948289 For instance: using nmap -sn 192.168.1.1/24 or nmap -sP 192.168.1.1/24 I am able to do scans, although they are only in unprivileged mode it seems. The scan will not list MAC-addresses, nor will it find every host on the network. (It found 5 out of 11, skipping among others routers/printers etc). ifconfig and iwconfig both list "wlp3s0" as the wireless device. It was renamed from wlan0 during boot: [ 4.425962] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0 wlp3s0: renamed from wlan0 [ 4.433282] systemd-udevd[1665]: renamed network interface wlan0 to wlp3s0 It does not register the ethernet device either, andit was too renamed during boot: [ 4.361229] e1000e 0000:00:19.0 enp0s25: renamed from eth0 [ 4.375139] systemd-udevd[1673]: renamed network interface eth0 to enp0s25 This is happening on a Gentoo system. I've also tried specifying the interface using -e <device> to no avail.
