This is bad, because --spoof_mac seems to screw up the ARP ping scan,
so it refuses to scan even with -P0.

Maybe your network is MAC locked or otherwise doesn't allow the
spoofed MAC addresses (or just takes a while to recognize them).

Oh, you're right. This is a WiFi network restricted to certain MAC  
addresses. I guess i thought that once i was connected to the  
network, i could spoof my MAC with impunity. Apparently not.

I used Mac OS X for these tests. I also run Nmap on OpenBSD. It works  
great on both.

--send_ip sounds useful, thanks.
