November 24, 200916 yr For some reason the new version of nmap I am getting the following error getinterfaces: Failed to open ethernet interface (vmnet8). A possible cause on BSD operating systems is running out of BPF devices (see http://seclists.org/lists/nmap-dev/2006/Jan-Mar/0014.html). Anyone have any idea's on how to correct this besides deleting the VMWare Fusion interface sudo ifconfig vmnet8 remove[/code]
