By default nmap does not scan the full port range. The man page says: "The default is to scan all ports between a and 1024 as wall as any ports listed in the services file which comes with nmap".

If you would like to scan all ports you must explicitly instruct nmap to do so by passing it the option "-p 1-65534".

Hope this clears up your confusion,

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've found nothing on Google about the issue.

I'm doing a portscan against an Oracle 11i Oracle Applications server. The output shows:

Starting nmap 3.81 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2005-10-14 14:05 EDT
Interesting ports on oraappserver1.inside.net (172.10.10.86):
(The 1653 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
PORT      STATE SERVICE
22/tcp    open  ssh
111/tcp   open  rpcbind
113/tcp   open  auth
139/tcp   open  netbios-ssn
445/tcp   open  microsoft-ds
1666/tcp  open  netview-aix-6
5555/tcp  open  freeciv
6000/tcp  open  X11
9090/tcp  open  zeus-admin
12345/tcp open  NetBus
MAC Address: 00:0B:CD:9B:A2:98 (Compaq (HP))



Yet to connect to the box, the users open a browser and connect to http://oraserver1.inside.net:8040
They can also connect with the same URL but to ports 8020, and 8010.

There is no firewall on the box, or between the box and the users.
Why do these port not show up on nmap?

Thanks in advance,
Shane



Are you sure all the port listed bellow are open ?!
You should also take a look at the tcp port 12345 Netbus Backdoor ...
