hello everyone!

ok so am gonna type all this out and give you every ounce of info i can because at this point i have hit the wall! 
info--windows 7. 2 NIC cards. standard ethernet and the wifi (Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AG) nmap version is the 
latest

so here is the CURRENT --iflist

DEV  (SHORT) IP/MASK           TYPE     UP   MTU  MAC
eth0 (eth0)  169.254.244.28/16 ethernet down 1500 00:1D:E0:68:84:3B
lo0  (lo0)   ::1/128           loopback up   -1
lo0  (lo0)   127.0.0.1/8       loopback up   -1

DEV  WINDEVICE

::1/128            lo0  306
ff00::/8           lo0  306

now first thing before i get to the problem (among many). EVERY SINGLE TIME i have tried to install NPCAP adapter it 
was either no success or some problem along the way. it was suggested i set it for service on boot. when i did that i 
got a non running service along with the error (cannot find proper file path). funny, i looked in system32 and found 
the driver no problem. still complained. so i pointed it to the npcap.sys in NPCAP folder and walla! BUT..it will NOT 
let me change the boot start to auto!

so with all this, here comes the mystery. i curently have NO INTERNET. none. at the house or anywhere. i "borrow" or 
use free WIFI when available. so while i am at home with NO CONNECTION i try and fire off connect packets and keep 
hoping for an open AP with a DCHP. sometimes i find one, most not. but when i do AT HOME, it works no prob. can use 
nmap and browse net. btw, this is ALL with NPCAP adapter loopback DISABLED. when i enable it, i get in my systray a 
constant "identyfying network/no connection". when that is disabled, no issues. so anyway, i noticed i was at the 
library w/ open wifi and when i attempted to run nmap i got "cannot open eth0"!!! can someone please tell me WHY??? i 
am baffled! i havent tested it at other places yet. maybe i should. but i thought i knew networking and now maybe i 
realize i dont! what other info do you guys need????? lastly, can someone quickly look at that net card i posted and 
tell me if that is AIRPCAP compatible? really wanna play with those drivers! thank you

**last thing i wanted to add was i am looking at network config topology and this is the setup--ETHERNET CARD IS 
DISABLED (supposed to be, no internet, remember) NPCAP SAYS THIS "UNIDENTIFIED NETWORK", then the WIFI CARD "not 
connected"

does one HAVE have to have an actual ip like a 192 and not the autoconfig stadard 169 blah to capture 127 
traffic???????? one wouldnt think so

and one MORE LAST question, lol...if i uninstall NPCAP will this break all my windumps/ngreps/etc that use winpcap/npf?

so the info you wanted. win7 sp2? wifi card is standard intel that came with the lenovo thinkpad. nothing fancy at all. 
i am at a conveinence store asp, and i see the same result as you can see for yourself :

dnet: Failed to open device eth0
QUITTING!

and here, why does it 1, not recognize wifi adpapter at all! and 2, why does it keep saying i want to use eth!

last thing. all the public wifi connections i make are all through DHCP . does that matter?

re-adding dev () nmap org

Hey,
so, this is weird indeed, but you didn't give us enough information to
really troubleshoot this.

What OS are you running, and what version? What's the make and model of the
WiFi card you're using? Is it USB or integrated (like on a laptop)?
And, just to confirm, are you using the same computer both at home and in
the library?

BTW the library cannot "see" nmap before it starts (at least on your
computer) so what could be happening is that your OS does not recognize
your wifi card when you're in the library. But as to why, I don't know.

BTW, I tried looking for the other two messages you sent in the list
archives (https://seclists.org/nmap-dev/) to see if you already gave the
info, but I can't find them. If you already sent the info above just point
me at those please :)

ty for responding. so it gets even weirder. this is all happening at a
public library that offers free wifi. i know what ethernt is, i used it for
10 years. so someone explain this if you can because i am BAFFLED! i have
no connection at my home for the time being so i come here to the library.
i am using a WIRELESS CARD/CONNECTION. at home i have NO CONNECTION because
the wifi in the apt complex is locked down BUT i can still OPEN NMAP! and
it uses "eth0" when i do!? but at the library it will not open eth0?????
that is all it ever sees. that and the loopbacks. turning NPCAP on or off
doesnt help mattes. now i know this library locks down their router quite
well but how in the world could they see nmap before it is even fired
up????? thought i knew networking but this has be stumped! the packet
traffic at the lib shows me calling and finding a DHCP and then getting the
proper config and going foward with a connection like any DHCP would. but
nmap does not work?????????????? ty

eth0 is, normally, the identifier of an ethernet card (the one with the
cable); wireless interfaces start with "w".

To see all the interfaces available on your system use either "ifconfig"
or "ip link show", then use that in nmap.

FYI newer Linux versions are using a different way of identifying cards,
so your card could be called something like wlp2s0.

for more info.

odd thing though. i am not using ETH0! that is my ethernet that is

wlan? wont even see it listed with --iflist. what gives

Hi there,


    when you use nsock_sendto() to query a multicast service like upnp or mdns, after you call 
nsock_liod_get_communication_info() in the receive callback to get the peer info, the peer info always
fails to update to the real peer info but still the info set in nsock_sendto().


     The root cause is very simple and I post below:


/* Windows will ignore src_addr and addrlen arguments to recvfrom on TCP
       * sockets, so peerlen is still sizeof(peer) and peer is junk. Instead,
       * only set this if it's not already set.
       */
      if (peerlen > 0 && iod->peerlen == 0) {
        assert(peerlen <= sizeof(iod->peer));
        memcpy(&iod->peer, &peer, peerlen);
        iod->peerlen = peerlen;
      }



so, can we fix this or just let it there?




BR,
SAIYN

Never seen that happen before.  I can assure you it works with wireless
cards.  Does ifconfig show your interface?
