nmap help

Hey guys

I have been playing around with my network security and testing nmap but for some reason

nmap -I 192.168.40

Does Not! work

It says

WARNING: identscan (-I) no longer supported. Ignoring -I

Has the -I been replaced with something else ??

all I want to do is see what user the service is running on.

Please help thanks

The man page of my nmap doesn't mention -I as an option. Can you check your man page of nmap?

Code:

man nmap

Try this:

Code:

su -
nmap -A -T4 `hostname -s`

I use this nmap script in my cron.daily, you can grab it from from my sig.

Code:

#!/bin/bash
nmap -A -T4 `hostname -s` | (cat <<EOF
This is an automated report of $0 on the server `hostname -s`.

EOF
cat
) | /bin/mail -s "[nmap -A -T4]" root
