Installing the latest NMAP (form SOURCE as of 2023/10/21)

The following sequence of commands is based on fresh installs of LMDE 5, LMDE 6, Mint 21.2, Debian 12.2 & 11.6 and Ubuntu 22.04 & 23.04.

Also works for Ubuntu 20.04.6 (Dell edition).

  • apt update
  • apt upgrade
  • apt install make g++ autoconf libssl-dev libssh2-1-dev libc6-dev
    • These dependancies are not all needed in all cases, but better safe than sory.
  • apt install python3.11 python3.11-venv
    • thanks to this little issue
    • For LMDE 5 or Debian 11 tho...
    • apt install python3.9 python3.9-venv
  • mkdir src
  • cd src
  • wget -4 https://nmap.org/dist/nmap-7.94.tgz
  • tar xvzf nmap-7.94.tgz
  • cd nmap-7.94
  • ./configure
  • make
  • sudo su
  • make install

Some useful nmap scans

Using nmap to inventory a network

The following command with nmap with root privilegies (or using sudo):

  • sudo nmap -n -sP 192.168.0.0/24 | awk '/Nmap scan report/{printf $5;printf "\t";printf $6;printf "\t";getline;getline;print $3;}' | awk '{printf $2;printf " ---> ";printf $1;printf "\n";}'

results in:

00:10:18:5D:B0:10 ---> 192.168.0.1
28:C6:8E:F9:B8:BF ---> 192.168.0.2
28:C6:8E:29:9D:30 ---> 192.168.0.3
...

(Good luck typing that in by hand...)

Want DNS?:

  • sudo nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/24 | awk '/Nmap scan report/{printf $5;printf "\t";printf $6;printf "\t";getline;getline;print $3;}' | awk '{printf $3;printf " ---> ";printf $1;printf "\n";}'

results in:

00:10:18:5D:B0:10 ---> zathras.tinkernow.net
28:C6:8E:F9:B8:BF ---> switcha.tinkernow.net
28:C6:8E:29:9D:30 ---> wap1.tinkernow.net
...

or both name & address?:

  • sudo nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/24 | awk '/Nmap scan report/{printf $5;printf "\t";printf $6;printf "\t";getline;getline;print $3;}' | awk '{printf $3;printf " ---> ";printf $2;printf "\t";printf $1;printf "\n";}'

results in:

00:10:18:5D:B0:10 ---> (192.168.0.1)	zathras.tinkernow.net
28:C6:8E:F9:B8:BF ---> (192.168.0.2)	switcha.tinkernow.net
28:C6:8E:29:9D:30 ---> (192.168.0.3)	wap1.tinkernow.net
...

But, for some reason, lack of a name causes odd formatting. And, nmap seems to fail to give the mac address of the machine doing the scan.

A rather more elaborate scan

I've built a script that does a thorough scan & catches things missed by the above scan(s).

But it's rather slow...

#!/bin/bash
sudo -v                                   # Get the password demand for sudo over with before clearing the screen
clear
echo Scanning 192.168.0.0/23

for j in {0..1}                           # My network is a /23 so I need to cycle through 2 octets
  do
  for i in {0..255}
    do
    if (( $(expr $j + $i)!=0 ))            # Don't bother pinging the broadcast address
      then
