Which of the following systems would not respond correctly to an nmap XMAS scan?
Answer(s): A
When running a XMAS Scan, if a RST packet is received, the port is considered closed, while no response means it is open|filtered. The big downside is that not all systems follow RFC 793 to the letter. A number of systems send RST responses to the probes regardless of whether the port is open or not. This causes all of the ports to be labeled closed. Major operating systems that do this are Microsoft Windows, many Cisco devices, BSDI, and IBM OS/400.

As seen in the exhibit there is 2 registrations with timeout, this tells us that the firewall filters packets where the TTL has reached 0, when you continue with higher starting values for TTL you will get an answer from the target of the traceroute.
While attempting to discover the remote operating system on the target computer, you receive the following results from an nmap scan:Starting nmap V. 3.10ALPHA9 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/<http://www.insecure.org/nmap/> ) Interesting ports on 172.121.12.222:(The 1592 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: filtered) Port State Service21/tcp open ftp 25/tcp open smtp 53/tcp closed domain 80/tcp open http 443/tcp open httpsRemote operating system guess: Too many signatures match to reliably guess the OS.Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 277.483 secondsWhat should be your next step to identify the OS?
Answer(s): D
Most people don’t care about changing the banners presented by applications listening to open ports and therefore you should get fairly accurate information when grabbing banners from open ports with, for example, a telnet application.
When Nmap performs a ping sweep, which of the following sets of requests does it send to the target device?
The default behavior of NMAP is to do both an ICMP ping sweep (the usual kind of ping) and a TCP port 80 ACK ping sweep. If an admin is logging this will be fairly characteristic of NMAP.
