NMAP
Step 1: Clone nmap repository
mkdir nmap && cd nmap
git clone https://github.com/nmap/nmap.git .
Step 2: Configure nmap
./configure --without-zenmap
📝 --without-zenmap will configure nmap without the zenmap GUI
❗️ By default, the configuration step will also configure additional network tools including nping and ncat.
Step 3: Build and install nmap
make
sudo make install
📝 Default install location is /usr/local/bin. sudo privileges are required to install here.
Step 4: Verify nmap, ncat, and nping installations
nmap -V
ncat --version
nping --version
