On compiling nmap (various version, including the latest beta) and running it, I quickly discovered that it does not function properly against anything except localhost - everything appears dead to it, and it receives no reply of any kind from any host. To check if it was simply the hosts I was testing against, I downloaded and ran tcpdump (which also uses libpcap). The situation is this: If I run tcpdump with no filter (ie. no parameters) I get the normal display. If I specify any filter of any kind, the filter works properly, but absolutely NO incoming packets are display WHATSOEVER. Anyone have any idea what's going on?
