Hi,

Not realy a bug :) only a wrong error description.

When scanning a whole network (easy example nmap a.b.c.d /24) a error
occures
"Target host specification is illegal---not  enough dots in IP" 

Maybe in one of the next releases another message (maybe more general)
could be included.


OK, I have improved that for the next version:

./nmap 192.168.0.0 /24

Starting Nmap 4.00 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2006-02-01 20:16 PST
Invalid target host specification: /24
QUITTING!


Cheers,
-F
