Package description for 'nmap'

advanced network audit tool/portscanner

 nmap is a network analysis and exploration tool that looks for
 open communications ports on a TCP/IP stack. What makes it
 different from most other systems is the ability to do so stealthy
 and very precise. Since the days of the original phrack article
 and the 1.49 release, it developed to a complete system identification
 tool. It is capable of identifying most operating systems based on
 handling of unlikely packet flag combinations.
 This version adds direct (non-portmapper) RPC scanning to the
 already impressive list of features. This feature allows to gain
 quite useful information on rpc-services even when the target
 has firewalled the rpc-portmapper-port.
