o Made eth_get_pcap_devname compare interface descriptions as well as
MAC addresses when assigning interface names like eth0 on Windows.
Only comparing MAC addresses failed in the case of "teamed"
interfaces, when three interfaces (two physical, one virtual) could
have the same hardware address.
versions of OpenSolaris (I tested snv_134) also support PF_PACKET, but
not in an entirely compatible way. The configure check was making the
build use eth-linux.c, which doesn't compile under OpenSolaris. This
change makes OpenSolaris fall back to eth-dlpi.c, which works. The
report about this was sent by Darren Reed.
than one string of digits. Joe Dietz reported that an interface with
the name e1000g0 was causing the error message
Warning: Unable to open interface e1000g0 -- skipping it.

which have been merged to the upstream libdnet repository and thus
do not have to be re-applied when the libdnet version included with
Nmap is updated in the future.
a layer 4 protocol used mostly for telephony related applications.
This brings the following new features:
o SCTP INIT chunk port scan (-sY): open ports return an INIT-ACK
chunk, closed ones an ABORT chunk. This is the SCTP equivalent
of a TCP SYN stealth scan.
o SCTP COOKIE-ECHO chunk port scan (-sZ): open ports are silent,
closed ports return an ABORT chunk.
o SCTP INIT chunk ping probes (-PY): host discovery using SCTP
INIT chunk packets.
o SCTP-specific IP protocol scan (-sO -p sctp).
o SCTP-specific traceroute support (--traceroute).
o The ability to use the deprecated Adler32 algorithm as specified
in RFC 2960 instead of CRC32C from RFC 4960 (--adler32).
o 42 well-known SCTP ports were added to the nmap-services file.
Part of the work on SCTP support was kindly sponsored by
Compass Security AG, Switzerland. [Daniel Roethlisberger]
addr_stob didn't handle the special case of the sa_len member of
struct sockaddr being equal to 0 and accessed unrelated memory past
the end of the sockaddr. A symptom of this was the fatal error
nexthost: failed to determine route to ...
which was caused by the default route being assigned a netmask other
than 0.0.0.0.
when I adapted some libdnet 1.11 code to convert a dnet name to a pcap name by
matching hardware addresses. I removed an earlier comment that this one
supersedes.

ltmain.sh, and missing from subdirectories. Autoconf automatically looks
in the parent directory for these files. I had to copy the files
depcomp, ltmain.sh, and missing into the root of the source tree.
(These get mapped to interfaces beginning with "net": net0, net1, etc.) I
originally planned to make this a debugging message to be displayed at a
certain debuggin level whether the interface type is recognized or not. It
looked to be a pain to give libdnet visibility of Nmap debugging level, so
instead it just prints a message to stderr only when the interface type is
unrecognized.
