Nmap needs netlink

[BrammyH]

This may be something unsupported due to hardware access, but I thought I'd see what happens if I try to run Nmap. I get the following error:

Starting Nmap 7.70 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2018-12-05 14:42 UTC                route_dst_netlink: cannot create AF_NETLINK socket: Invalid argument           iPad:~#

nmap requires a large number of networking APIs to be implemented in order to run, so it's going to be low priority.

Could anyone fix this issue on “nmap” command ?

[tbodt]

Could you? That would be awesome, it would close 3 issues 😄

I would like to contribute to solving this issue during my spare time, if possible.

Might someone be able to point me in the right direction?

Should I look into communication between user space and kernel space in general, or something more specific?

I've tried simple things like adding libnl (and libel-dev) packages but still getting the same error.

The socket code is in fs/sock.c, and the documentation for netlink is in the netlink(7) and rtnetlink(7) manpages.

Any progress on nmap?

I migrated from an ancient ish alpine image that I installed before ish was on the App Store. Nmap and traceroute were working perfectly in that version. Now that I pulled the new image to do a fresh start, I found out that nmap and traceroute are now broken. Also ping is also doing some interesting stuff when it can’t reach the specified host.

I'm having the same problem with the 1.2.3 (298). <3 this app. Thank you all for contributing.

Try to install AF_NETLINK in the same root folder of nmap so it might work smoothly

kindly cd and the app u wish to run Then add nmap and the AF_NETLINK

then after try to execute the py or the bash as per the requirements

How to install the AF_NETLINK or netmiko? Could anyone explain the process? Is it really help?

一个好消息，我好像找到方法能够在iSH上运行nmap了 Good news, I seem to have found a way to run nmap on iSH.

Would you like to share how you did it?

You need to perform these three steps on iSH to switch to users under ordinary permissions. apk add nmap adduser iSH su iSH Then you can use nmap on iSH normally. But you will receive a new error: Strange read error from 127.0.0.1 (1 - 'Operation not permitted') Problem binding to interface , errno: 22 socket_bindtodevice: Invalid argument

I can only use 127.0.0.1 and nothing else.

you need to run the command with the -Pn option for this to work, I got it to work on my iPhone 15 for a local server on both its local and public IP
