Frequently used scans can be saved as profiles + to make them easy to run repeatedly. A command creator allows interactive + creation of Nmap command lines. Scan results can be saved and viewed later. + Saved scan results can be compared with one another to see how they differ. + The results of recent scans are stored in a searchable database. + + + + Options Summary + + + + results file + + Open the given results file for viewing. The results file may be + an Nmap XML output file (.xml, as produced by nmap + -oX) or a Umit scan results file (.usr). This option may be + given more than once. + + + + + + + Show a help message and exit. + + + + + Nmap command line + + Run the given Nmap command within the Zenmap interface. After + or , every remaining + command line argument is read as the command line to execute. This + means that or must be + given last, after any other options. Note that the command line must + include the nmap executable name: zenmap + -n nmap -sS target. + + + + + profile + + Start with the given profile selected. The profile name is just + a string: "Regular scan". If combined with + , begin a scan with the given profile against the + specified target. + + + + + target + + Start with the given target. If combined with + , begin a scan with the given profile against the + specified target. + + + + + + + Increase verbosity (of Zenmap, not Nmap). This option may be + given multiple times to get even more vebosity. Beware that verbose + output is not shown on a terminal unless the environment variable + ZENMAP_DEVELOPMENT is defined and true. + + + + + Any other arguments are taken to be the names of results files to + open. + + + + + + Environment Variables + + + ZENMAP_DEVELOPMENT + + Set ZENMAP_DEVELOPMENT to 1 to enable + development mode. This causes debugging output to be printed to a + terminal (see the option) and turns off + automatic crash reporting. + + + + + + + Bugs + Like their authors, Nmap and Zenmap aren’t perfect. But you can + help make them better by sending bug reports or even writing patches. If + Nmap or Zenmap doesn’t behave the way you expect, first upgrade to the + latest version available from . If + the problem persists, do some research to determine whether it has already + been discovered and addressed. Try Googling the error message or browsing + the nmap-dev archives at . Read this + full manual page as well. If nothing comes of this, mail a bug report to + nmap-dev@insecure.org. Please include everything you have + learned about the problem, as well as what version of Zenmap you are running + and what operating system version it is running on. Problem reports and + Zenmap usage questions sent to nmap-dev@insecure.org are far more likely to + be answered than those sent to Fyodor directly. + + Code patches to fix bugs are even better than bug reports. Basic + instructions for creating patch files with your changes are available at + . Patches may be sent + to nmap-dev (recommended) or to Fyodor directly. + + + + History + Zenmap was originally derived from Umit, an Nmap GUI created by + Adriano Monteiro Marques. Umit began as a project for the Google Summer of + Code in 2005. Zenmap became an independent project in October 2007. + + + + Authors + + + + Nmap + Fyodor + fyodor@insecure.org + () + + + Hundreds of people have made valuable contributions to Nmap + over the years. These are detailed in the + CHANGELOG file which is distributed with Nmap + and also available from . + + + + Umit + Zenmap is derived from the Umit Nmap frontend, the primary author of + which is Adriano Monteiro Marques py.adriano@gmail.com + (). + + + + +
