Well, you *are* telling nmap to do a ping-scan (-sP) which doesn't use ports, but then you specify ports as well. Quite possibly, some condition has been reversed/reused somewhere where it wasn't proper, so that the error message for the opposite condition (non-PING scan with no ports specified) is shown instead. A quick scan of the source-code should tel you if this is the case. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson () op5 se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
