This is the Debian GNU/Linux package of NMAP -- The Network Mapper, by Fyodor . Please see http://nmap.org/. This package was crafted by LaMont Jones using: http://nmap.org/ NMAP is copyright 1997-2003 by Fyodor and others, and distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, Version 2. On Debian GNU/Linux systems, the complete text of the GNU General Public License can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2'. The actual Nmap license (minus the copy of GPL-2 mentioned above): The main Nmap code is covered under the Nmap license, which is the GPL with a few clarifications/exceptions. A copy of that can be found at http://insecure.org/nmap/data/COPYING . The Nmap Security Scanner also uses 3rd party open source libraries for various functions. Some or all of these may be necessary or desirable to distribute Nmap. All use BSD-style licenses. If they are included, their license must be followed. This document briefly describes how and when each library is used, and details the license terms. The six libraries are the the LibPcap raw packet capture library, WinPcap Windows Packet Capture Library, Libdnet raw networking library, LibPCRE perl-compatable regular expression library, Lua programming language, and the OpenSSL SSL encryption library. ==LibPcap Raw Packet Capture Library== LibPcap is used by Nmap on UNIX for raw packet reading during host discovery, port scanning, and OS detection. It is available from http://www.tcpdump.org. It is bundled with the Nmap Security Scanner in the libpcap-possiblymodified subdirectory.

It is available from http://winpcap.polito.it/. It is a derivative of LibPcap, so that license (above) must be followed as well.
