Title: NMap
Post by: ceebster on September 11, 2005, 10:04:33 PM

Hi

I am a new to SME server and UNIx but starting to get my head round it - i would like to use Nmap but it is not installed on my server.  I have downloaded and unziped it, but i get the following error when When i use
" ./configure"

it sort of compiles the program the gives me an error of

configure: error: no acceptable C complier  found in $path
See config.log for more details/

Any Ideas

Cheers
Chris

I use nmap on sme 6.0.1 without a problem. I think I downloaded a compiled rpm for redhat 7.3 (Installation: rpm -Uvh nmap*)

.. and if it is the sme 7.0 beta I guess that it is the Centos 3.0 rpm that will be the proper one.

Hi

Thanks - it is v6, but used RPM and it worked thanks

which switch would you recommend to use when scanning normal ports?  -v?

Oh .. I don't remember, I have to admit. I use the "man nmap" command every time to pick out parameters. To check out if things (parameters) work, I think you can start with scanning yourself. (nmap localhost).

Actually it would be Centos 4.1 rpm.  :-)

But .. but .. the Centos 4.1 use the 2.6.x kernel by default. Does this mean that the sme server has changed to the 2.6.x kernel during the alpha and beta development ?? This will eventually be big news ..

Yes you are right. Thanks a lot for this info. This were great news. The development team has actually included the new 2.6.x kernel :-)
