Hi Michael,

Thanks, tried to install the microsoft rtl stuff, but that wouldn't install
on this w2k box, even though the usoft description specifically says that it
works with win2k sp4. Error message was:
Thats too bad, if the 2008 runtime isn't compatible with win2k then
future Nmap versions wont be ether. There goes the backwards
compatibility neighborhood. But I guess windows wants you to start
developing embedded things on vista.

Reverted to plan b and installed the earlier 4.60 version, but that
complains about not being able to open eth0. Quote:

dnet: Failed to open device eth0
QUITTING !

Perhaps it thinks it's running Linux ?.
Nmap simulates the eth* interface names by just assigning each
interface one, its easier to specify a specific interface that way.
You can list all the interfaces by running the following in the
command line:
nmap --iflist

I've seen that error once before, the solution was to uninstall the
winpcap that nmap installed and reinstall it. you can get it here:

Cheers,
Michael
