Re: Odd nmap behavior under Windows Vista Business

A step in the WRONG direction.  If I replace the nmap
winpcap with the winpcap.org version the popup goes
away, but nmap can't find the network device anymore.

   C:\Program Files\Nmap>nmap -vvv paper
   Starting Nmap 4.22SOC2 ( http://insecure.org ) at 2007-08-30
    18:04 US Mountain Standard Time
   pcap_open_live(net0, 104, 0, 15) FAILED. Reported error:
    Error opening adapter: The system cannot find the device
    specified. (20).  Will wait 5 seconds then retry.
and that reports a few times before nmap gives up.

If I specify eth0 or eth1, nmap folds up with NmapArpCache()
errors, viz:

   C:\Program Files\Nmap>nmap -vvv -e eth1 paper
   Starting Nmap 4.22SOC2 ( http://insecure.org ) at 2007-08-30

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

   C:\Program Files\Nmap>nmap -vvv -e eth0 paper

in a popup.  If I click OK, nmap continues in "connect() mode".

What if you download the winpcap installer directly from the winpcap
site and use that instead of the one that comes with nmap?

http://www.winpcap.org/install/default.htm and download stable version 4.0.1
