RE: NMAP

["Mikhail A. Utin" <mutin () commonwealthcare org>]

Hello,
Yes, you need tp clarify "active". By my experience, Nmap finds only active hosts. Whatever it lists are up, and  
networked :).
In general, I see that you would be better using GUI Nmap rather than CLI, at least until you do not automate its 
utilization/scripting it in something. GUI gives you better understanding of options right on the screen. Plus, I would 
suggest taking a look on insecure.org and get v. 5.20 just released. Many thank to Fyodor for his devotion to the info 
security community needs.

Regards

Mikhail

Alright, so what do you mean "active hosts"?
