Hi,

    In the Nmap man page we can see: "-A: Enables OS detection and
Version detection, Script scanning and Traceroute". But when I use the
-A option the traceroute did not was executed. I'm trying it with the
Nmap 4.53.


I don't mean offense if you did this, but: are you running as root (not 
with -sT) and against a host that's more than one hop away?  If the host 
is directly connected traceroute doesn't run.

I assume you /are/ running as root because you didn't mention OS 
detection not working either.

Att, João Medeiros.


Thanks,
Kris Katterjohn
