Any help is appreciated. My Command line: nmap -sP -PI -oA ping-10.10.0.0 10.10.0.0/16 Obvisouly, I am running out of buffer space somewhere, but where is my question, and is there a solution, except to reduce the size of the subnet being scanned. I first tired -T4, and backed it all the way down to -T1, with almost no difference. I get lots of hosts returned as being up, then it starts giving me the error below. I have tried different size subnets, and the largest I can scan with out geting the error is /22. I sometimes get an error similar to #2 below. (can;t remember the whole thing, and forgot to copy it.) I scan a lot of large subnets, and would like to ge this resolved. Is there another way to throttle back, besides the timing option? I hate having to do 20 or 25 smaller scans, then cat'ing them together. error #1 sendto in sendpingquery returned -1 (should be 8)! sendto: No buffer space available error #2 RTTVAR My versions: nmap version 3.48 Linux xxx.xxxx.org 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl #1 Wed Feb 18 16:38:32 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux (Fedora Core 1) Thanks again for any help.... joe --------------------------------------------------------------------- For help using this (nmap-dev) mailing list, send a blank email to nmap-dev-help () insecure org .
