Offset,

I've had numerous false-positive results caused by using nmap on FreeBSD within a VMWare environment.  I mostly 
contribute this to using NAT and not giving it physical access to the network, but due to lack of time and a pressing 
deadline I was unable to determine the real cause of the problem.
