NMAP Tutorial (BACKTRACK)

What is NMAP ?

HERES' THE SECRET

Nmap (Network Mapper) is a security scanner used to discover hosts and services on a computer network, thus creating a "map" of the network. To accomplish its goal, Nmap sends specially crafted packets to the target host and then analyzes the responses. Unlike many simple port scanners that just send packets at some predefined constant rate, Nmap accounts for the network conditions during the run.
Nmap has been able to extend its discovery capabilities beyond simply figuring out whether a host is up or down and which ports are open and closed

NMAP can determine the
                             operating system of the target,
                                       names and
                                              versions of the listening services,
                                                          estimated up time,
                                                                      type of device,
                                                                                and presence of a FIREWALL.

Nmap runs on
                       Linux,
                                Microsoft Windows,
                                                Solaris
                                                     ,HP-UX
                                                           and
                                                               BSD
 Linux is the most popular Nmap platform with Windows following it closely

Features of NMAP

Nmap features include:
  • Host Discovery – Identifying hosts on a network. For example, listing the hosts which respond to pings or have a particular port open.
  • Port Scanning – Enumerating the open ports on one or more target hosts.
  • Version Detection – Interrogating listening network services listening on remote devices to determine the application name and version number
  • OS Detection – Remotely determining the operating system and some hardware characteristics of network devices.
  • Scriptable interaction with the target – using Nmap Script Engine  [WIKIPEDIA HELP]
