I recently upgraded to the latest nmap, and now it's not working. I can't say for sure that the upgrade caused the problem, as I replaced a bunch of config files that needed updating in a late-night haze. Anyway, here's the error...
| Code: | nmap www.google.com
Starting nmap 3.20 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2003-03-24 20:30 UTC
WARNING: Could not determine what interface to route packets through to 216.239.37.99, changing ping scantype to ICMP ping only
pcap_open_live: bind: No such device
There are several possible reasons for this, depending on your operating system:
LINUX: If you are getting Socket type not supported, try modprobe af_packet or recompile your kernel with SOCK_PACKET enabled.
*BSD: If you are getting device not configured, you need to recompile your kernel with Berkeley Packet Filter support. If you are getting No such file or directory, try creating the device (eg cd /dev; MAKEDEV <device>; or use mknod).
SOLARIS: If you are trying to scan localhost and getting '/dev/lo0: No such file or directory', complain to Sun. I don't think Solaris can support advanced localhost scans. You can probably use "-P0 -sT localhost" though. |
Trying the same scan but specifying -e eth0 results in the same message. Any ideas? |

try to specify what type of scan do you want to make
(e.g.nmap -sU -sT / nmap -P0 -sS www.blabla.bla )
but,i also know that the -sS option it's default...
atleast try it,maybe it would help
