Re: mac address on external txt file

Could I start a campaign to undeprecate it? I use it on every test to
easily pull out lists to feed into other tools.

XML may be useful to feed into tools specifically developed for it but not
for everything else.

Matteo,

Grepable output (-oG) is a deprecated format [1]. It's stable and useful
for some things, but it can't be extended to new features. One feature that
is missing is MAC address output. If you need a machine-readable format
that will always contain output from all of Nmap's features, use the XML
output format [2]. The MAC address is output as the
//host/address[@addrtype="mac"] element.

if my mac osx is in 192.168.18.0/24 net and I run on terminal :

nmap -O -F -sS 192.168.15.254

I obtain also *host mac address*.

If I run the same command but direct output to txt file:

nmap -O -F -sS -oG pippo.txt 192.168.15.254

I lose this information.

Is this a bug ?
