The response to each packet by the target system helps to determine the OS type. Each probe may consist of one or more packets. There are five separate probes being performed.
#ZENMAP OS X UPDATE#
When the version number has changed you can update the database and add the version number so you are prepared when checking for updates again.īefore we get into the actual command and performing an OS Detection we should cover some details about what is happening during this scan. By adding the version number it will be easier to check later if the version number has changed. Use a text editor to open the database and on the second line add the version number.

As you saw in Figure 1 the version number is 36736. The new database should be downloaded and ready to go, but you should add the version number. Perform the following commands in a Terminal:
#ZENMAP OS X DOWNLOAD#
The next step is to download the new version from the website. The database is ‘moved’ or ‘renamed’ to include the version number. Sudo mv /usr/share/nmap/nmap-os-db /usr/share/nmap/nmap-os-db-35407 Since my current version is 35407 I will perform the following command in a Terminal: It may be a good idea to keep the older database version. The database definitely needs to be updated for proper OS Detection of newer systems. This seems like quite an update compared to what is currently on my system. Here you can see that the version number is 36736.

To look on the Internet for an updated version go to ‘ ’ as shown in Figure 1. The database version for this file is 35407.

The second line of my database is ‘# $Id: nmap-os-db 35407 04:26:26Z dmiller $’. Open the file in a text editor and the version number is usually listed on the second line. The easiest way to manage an update is first to look at the database version number. The database is located at ‘/usr/share/nmap/nmap-os-db’. The database is used when doing OS detection, but it is not automatically updated.
#ZENMAP OS X INSTALL#
NMAP has a database which is installed when you install NMAP. Scanning your own network to detect the OS types can help you to see what a hacker will be able to see about your network. Granted, security holes are usually patched quickly, but you need to know when a security hole exists. Accessing a system is easier when you know the OS because you can specifically search the Internet for known security holes in the OS.
