ckup Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Ok, so I have looked everywhere for a decent tutorial or fix. Yes I have considered reinstalling everything yadyada. Ok, so I am running Ubuntu with BackTrack5R1 booted on it. For some reason, whenever I do an nmap scan(OS detection) It returns Nmap: Starting Nmap ------ Nmap:Note: Host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our pingprobes, try -Pn Nmap done: 1 IP adress (0 hosts up) scanned in 6.23 second. I ran the host-->nmap--->quick scan (OS)---->192.168.0.2-----^ Ive looked everywhere for this. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 try updating cd /pentest/exploits/framework && svn update . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckup Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 so what does svn update mean? How is it different than msf update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Basically the same I'd think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckup Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 Ok, so I ran NMap OS detect 192.168.1.0/24 and it pulled up a perfect ping scan but I still recieved no OS detection. I dont understand, i updated and everything. It specifically said that "There are too many fingerprints to get an os" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Then there are too many services or fingerprints to correctly identify an OS. Not much you can do. Scan with service identification and that may help identify an OS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckup Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 Ive learned a lot on the internet but have come across yet another nmap problem. When I decide to use the console i type: nmap -v 192.168.x.xxx it returns host up But no ports... I know there is a port 80 open with tcp but it doesnt show up on nmap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 nmap -sV -PN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
