Thanks Tim:
well, the real interface is rl0...:) sorry for the
confusion.
the problem is that the nmap seems to have mind of its
own and stick with em0:
sis# nmap -e rl0 -v -sP 192.168.126.0/23

getinterfaces: Failed to open ethernet interface (em0)
QUITTING!
It has 4 interfacres but nmap just sticks with em0. i
am lost ...
It could be that you're running out of BPF devices.
With recent versions of nmap, I needed to create 11
entries in /dev before I could get it to work.
The machine in question was FreeBSD 4.11 with 4
physical interfaces.
To check, run nmap through truss:
truss nmap -e rl0 -sP 192.168.126.0/23
And look for something like:
open("/dev/bpf4",0x1,027757740460) ERR#16 'Device busy'
open("/dev/bpf5",0x1,027757740460) ERR#16 'Device busy'
open("/dev/bpf6",0x1,027757740460) ERR#2 'No such file or directory'
If you see that, then just add any BPF devices you
need:
cd /dev && sh ./MAKEDEV bpf6
