specifying more than one character on nmap --ip-options
hi
I have "(22 - 'Invalid argument')" using nmap.
I'V google'd and got https://seclists.org/nmap-dev/
but on that is it talks about IPv6 while I got this error using
IPv4 in no place IPv4 is mensionned, so why am I getting
this weird error ???????????
i entered
nmap --send-eth --release-memory --nsock-engine=epoll --allports --fuzzy --randomize-hosts --log-errors --max-os-tries=9 -n --reason --append-output --scanflags=URGACKPSHRSTSYNFIN --max-retries=6 --host-timeout=225s --stats-every=10m --ttl=255 --min-hostgroup=5 --max-hostgroup=25 --max-rtt-timeout=60s --scan-delay=250ms --max-scan-delay=25s --stats-every=1 -v5 -sT -sV -A -p 80-82 0.18.0.0
and got

when trying with less arguements nmap -p 80-82 0.18.0.0
got:

when trying with ncat i got
marc@platinum:~/NCat_test$ nc -vvv 0.18.0.0 80
0.18.0.0: inverse host lookup failed: Unknown host
(UNKNOWN) [0.18.0.0] 80 (http) : Invalid argument
sent 0, rcvd 0
marc@platinum:~/NCat_test$ nc -vvv 0.18.0.0 81
0.18.0.0: inverse host lookup failed: Unknown host
(UNKNOWN) [0.18.0.0] 81 (hosts2-ns) : Invalid argument
sent 0, rcvd 0
i still have "Invalid argument" but this time instead of 22 I got the post numbers and service
80 (http)
81 (hosts2-ns)
this raises a few questions
1) does the "Invalid argument" of ncat and nmap relate to the same thing ?
2) how can I make nmap for informative instead of printing 22 ?
3) how can I say that the remote port is really CLOSEd or is it really OPENned and rejecting because of the firewall ?
thank's for your help

In looking at the output provided, it appears you are running nmap as a user and not as root or a privileged user, which is a requirement in order to take full advantage of its capabilities.
I recommend typing "sudo su" and press Enter, then retype your password to become superuser.
Next, run nmap, e.g. "nmap -p 80-82 0.18.0.0" replacing the 0.18.0.0 with a legitimate IP address to see how you fare.
I suspect you'll have better success or at least, you're a step closer.
