I'm guessing multiple NIC's, but windows tries to use the wrong one. 
This happens on my XP SP1 as well, although I can't say I'm surprised 
they haven't gotten to the "link up" stage yet...

Thx for all the help. Right in 3.90 --winhelp is gone, but --iflist do
likewise. My config is :

192.168.120.254 is a "AVM FRITZ!web PPP over ISDN", that make the trouble.
Its per default enable and unplugged.
If i disable it DNS work a usally. I tried to bind nmap to a specified
interface per

nmap -e eth0 -sP 10.33.56.0/24

NmapArpCache() can only take IPv4 addresses.  Sorry
QUITTING!

nmap -e lo0 -sP 10.33.56.0/24 

work as usally, what i also didnt understand. Its seem not to be a nmap
problem, its more strange behaviour under XP SP2.

Regards Baumgart
