Nmap – Mike Palmer

So as many people know, Debian and Ubuntu’s often lag behind the stable releases of nmap due to the nature of releases. But sometimes you want to stay volatile on a few things to keep up with joneses at insecure.org and get at some of those cool new NSE scripts or features. Easy enough but I prefer packages for a multitude of reasons, mainly my own sanity maintaining any given system over time. So when there are no 5.51 packages around yet it might mean you have to take matters into your own hands. Hopefully my/our impatience, desires, results, (whatever you call it) at Orvant end up being useful to other people as well.
