python-dev package in a certain error situation. Previously the
error message it printed was misleading:
error: invalid Python installation: unable to open
/usr/lib/python2.6/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)
The change was suggested by Aaron Leininger.
Found whacked packet protocol 17 in get_ping_pcap_result
and rewrite it
Received packet with protocol 17; ignoring.
The message is printed when we receive a packet we can't use during a
ping scan, but it's not "whacked" to receive a UDP packet during a TCP
scan for example.
should prevent name collisions with internal but exported functions
in shared libraries Nmap links against (e.g. adler32() in zlib).
Such collisions seem to confuse the runtime linker on some platforms.

different bytes in a few X11 fields. I've made the match more
generic. I have a feeling that the X11 fields might contain useful
information that we could include in i// but I don't know enough about
X11 to do that myself.
"\n" from a few error() calls. Changed a few f?printf() calls to
error() or log_write().
Most notably, I didn't change any of the --interactive printf()s or
the usage printf() call.
I think we should draw up some internal notes on when to use
LOG_STDOUT versus LOG_PLAIN versus all the other LOG_* options.
by collapsing them to a single .* and making sure that the DOTALL
(PCRE s modifier) is set on the match. This should dramatically cut
down on cases where MATCHLIMIT is returned. See
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2009/q2/0086.html for a discussion. I
chose to only use .* in this patch even though .*? will be faster in
some cases. I felt the speed benefit of .*? did not outweigh the
relative obscurity of lazy quantifiers. I have some ideas on how
audit matches for performance and some ideas on optimizations that can
be done. .*? and friends will have wait.
attempt to reduce the number of warnings like "Warning: Servicescan
failed to fill info_template...". Parts of this change include:
o Improved the text of the warning to be less confusing
o Increased the internal version info buffer to 256 chars from 128
o Increased the final version string length to 160 from 128 chars
o Changed the behavior when constructing the final version string so
that if it runs out of space, rather than dropping the output of that
template it truncates the template with ...
o Fixed the printing of unneeded spaces between templates when one of the
templates isn't going to be printed at all.
viewer. Apparently old versions of Nmap can return a state of
"unknown". This prevents this crash:

error at the wrong level, so not all possible errors were being run through the
help table. Specifically, errors returned msrpc.start_smb and msrpc.bind, which
included at least NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND, didn't get the explanatory
text. I made a mistake in testing the error reporting the first time around.
check in smb-check-vulns.nse: NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND and
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. Ron and I found the best explanations for these
that we could. There is another error, NT_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED, which is
less common than these but has been observed. We still don't have a clue
as to the cause of that one.
