Added explanatory comments and links. The client endpoint identifier is not the hostname (h// template) of the target. This could be any RMI endpoint, such as `rmid` and not `rmiregistry`, so using "java-rmi" instead of "rmiregistry" for the service name. Added port 10990 (rmiaux) based on IANA assignment. Fixes #1342

Ideally, you should be able to just type:
./configure
make
make install
For far more in-depth compilation, installation, and removal notes, read the Nmap Install Guide on Nmap.org.
Using Nmap
Nmap has a lot of features, but getting started is as easy as running nmap scanme.nmap.org. Running nmap without any parameters will give a helpful
list of the most common options, which are discussed in depth in the man
page. Users who prefer a graphical interface
can use the included Zenmap front-end.
