Hi Saidur, 

The Error:
E:\nmap>nmap -O ranksitt.com

Starting nmap 3.93 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap ) at 
2005-10-04 19:30 
Central
Asia Standard Time
Failed to resolve given hostname/IP: ranksitt.com.  Note that 
you can't use 
'/ma
sk' AND '[1-4,7,100-]' style IP ranges
WARNING: No targets were specified, so 0 hosts scanned.
Nmap finished: 0 IP addresses (0 hosts up) scanned in 0.631 seconds

I can't locate a DNS entry for ransitt.com, so I suspect nmap isn't
getting an IP address, though this probably isn't the most logical error
message.

E:\nmap>nmap -O google.com

Either nmap thinks you're on the same subnet as these hosts and is
trying to get a MAC address or it's actually just trying to get the MAC
address of the next hop, which suggests that there's no route? Are you
actually connected to the Internet via an ethernet connection?  (Dial-up
results may vary)

Hope that helps.

Later'ish
Craig
