Here is an old write-up (1999) by Ofir Arkin but still a very good
intro for Network scanning.

Enjoy

Hi, I've been looking at security and penetration-testing for some


time now and would like to get further into it.  I'd like to learn


more about penetration-testing, forensics, techniques for network
exploration/mapping, web application security and incedent
handling.
However I'm not really sure where to start, I looked at the OSSTMM

and
it was above my head.

At the moment I have a very limited budget and only a few spare
low-end computers.  If it matters, I'm mainly running OpenBSD.
Are
there any particular books or other media that I should take a
look at?

Any thoughts or recommendations are welcomed and greatly
appreciated.
