Big Zenmap news

[Vladimir Mitrovic <snipe714 () gmail com>]

Hi all,

I'm very happy to announce a couple of important Zenmap changes that David and 
I worked hard to implement:

- The network inventory
- Graphical topology visualization

I have compiled an explanation with an example scenario and screenshots at 
http://zenmap-soc08.blogspot.com/2008/08/inventory-and-topology.html.

If you don't have time to read through that post (but I suggest you do, it has 
eyecandy!), here's a quick snippet:

The network inventory is a new concept that allows you to run many scans from 
inside one Zenmap window, and view all results as if they were a part of one 
"big" scan. Each host's information is updated every time a scan targeting it 
has finished executing. This is done carefully, keeping host information from 
previous scans if the new scan doesn't discover anything new about the host.

Graphical topology visualization is achieved by integrating RadialNet into 
Zenmap. Every time you run a traceroute scan (nmap --traceroute ...), the 
network topology (accessible from the "Topology" tab) gets updated.

Also, the tab interface has been removed (in an ongoing clutter-removal 
effort), since many scans can now reside inside a single Zenmap window, which 
represents an inventory.

But enough talking:

svn co --username guest --password "" svn://svn.insecure.org/zenmap
cd zenmap
./zenmap &

Cheers,
Vladimir
