FW: Bug in default ZENMAP GUI

["Mick Alvey" <mike () alvey ca>]

Hello:

 

Hint: if your bounce scan target hosts aren't reachable from here, remember
to use -PN so we don't try and ping them prior to the scan

WARNING: Many people use -PN w/Idlescan to prevent pings from their true IP.
On the other hand, timing info Nmap gains from pings can allow for faster,
more reliable scans.

You specified more than one type of TCP scan.  Please choose only one of
-sA, -b, -sT, -sF, -sI, -sM, -sN, -sS, -sW, and -sX

QUITTING!

When starting up using the windows GUI Zenmap - the scan line fills in a
default scan that is not correct - I.e. nmap -sI -T4 -O -A -v -n -PE
-PA21,23,80,3389 -b 192.168.111.0/24

 

This is annoying to say the least and for the uninitiated, it should at
least be a valid scan?

 

Cheers

Mick
