safer alternative is to copy the files in share >nmap folder
with names 'nmap-mac-prefixes' to 'nmap-services' (7 files) to /etc directory..and change permissions to 755....and then run nmap os detection..

hey guys .. so I followed this tutorial https://secwiki.org/w/Nmap/Android but my phone is rooted.

but I still cant use it on my terminal, what seems to be the problem?

Answer 11

"sbin:/vendor/bin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin:/"

so is it possible to add programs to the environment path so as to execute?

I was thinking of getting the compiled version. tho its not preferred for a start I just wanted to see how far I can go with it.
and with the installation instructions ive got it doesnt seem that complicated. although I might be back with more questions :D

Answer 14

but its only available for 4.4/5.0 I think and above

Answer 15

Great,I got a bash script online and managed to install it just fine although not the one I intended to install first tho. ill look into that later.
Now my difficulty is in using nmap
"nmap -A (os detection) scanme.nmap.org"
I get an err "os scan cannot nmap-os-db file" and then points to some directory it should be.since I used a bash script I dont know where to get that file.. whoooooo !!
