That would run through nmap's list of default ports (2000). OS guess needs one closed, and one open port to be effective. I will supply port 23 which will be open if the OS is reported and, by default, nmap will provide a closed one by probing a few (3?) random high ports. -sV tests only what was supplied to it, because it starts a version scan -- Marcin Antkiewicz _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
