MS-DOS - SUCCESS

Just curious; what DOS platform/compiler did you use? I cannot see
any way to build nmap on MS-DOS. Re. the failures, have you studied
the itnerface/routing table? "nmap --iflist".

Hi Gilse,

I built the Release binary under Cygwin using the mswin32/makefile
with Visual Studio Express VC++ 2010 on XP SP3.
The results of the scans were from the Release binary executed from
the MS-DOS and Cygwin shells and the Debug binary was executed from
within VC++.

The output of nmap --iflist looks fine to me and is as follows:
