# Nmap Changelog ($Id$); -*-text-*-
o Removed the NmapFE frontend.
4.23RC1
o Updated IANA assignment IP list for random IP (-iR)
generation. [Kris]
o NmapFE is now GONE! It had a good run as the default Nmap GUI
for more than 8 years (since April 1999). But after two years of
development, Zenmap is ready to take its place. Zenmap is portable
and provides a much better interface to executing and (especially)
viewing and analyzing Nmap results. David did the honors of
removing NmapFE.
o We have lost another old friend as well: 1st generation OS
detection system. Nmap revolutionized OS detection when this was
released in October 1998 and it served us well for more than 9 years
as the database grew to 1,684 fingerprints. But the 2nd generation
system incorporates everything we learned during all those years and
has proven itself even more effective. I couldn't bear to kill this
myself, so David did the dirty work.
o There is no longer any artificial limit on the number of ports or
protocols that can be used for host discovery. Port lists for ping

o Removed the first-generation OS detection.
o Zenmap is now available packaged in RPM format. Since it is in
Python, we no longer have to have separate x86 and x86_64 versions
like we did with NmapFE (and like we still do with Nmap). [David]
o Fixed a crash (assertion failure) which could occur during ARP Ping
scan [Kris]
o Fixed Zenmap so that it can handle asterisks in the command line
(e.g. "nmap 192.168.*.*" or "nmap -phttp* localhost") [David]
o Change the Zenmap bug report dialogue to now give instructions for
reporting isues to nmap-dev. [David]
o Modified higwidgets/higdialogs.py for compatability with old
versions of PyGTK. [David]
o Updated IANA assignment IP list for random IP (-iR)
generation. [Kris]
o Fixed a number of spelling errors in the Reference Guide (man page)
