Package: nmap Version: 5.21-1 Severity: normal Still,
nmap do not behave in correct way in some cases. Consider scanning link-local address. In such case connect, but be done on socket binded to specific interface, consider this # ping6 -n fe80::202:a5ff:fe16:f2b9 -c 1 connect: Invalid argument # # ping6 -n fe80::202:a5ff:fe16:f2b9 -c 1 -I eth1 PING fe80::202:a5ff:fe16:f2b9(fe80::202:a5ff:fe16:f2b9) from fe80::216:6fff:feba:e060 eth1: 56 data bytes 64 bytes from fe80::202:a5ff:fe16:f2b9: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.48 ms --- fe80::202:a5ff:fe16:f2b9 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.485/1.485/1.485/0.000 ms # So lets be specific also in nmap by -e eth1: # nmap -n -6 -e eth1 fe80::202:a5ff:fe16:f2b9 Starting Nmap 5.21 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2011-02-08 16:46 CET Strange error from connect (22):Invalid argument Note: Host seems down.
