    Hello,

    Lots of people want Ring patch for Nmap.
    Please find enclosed the first release of Nmap patch.

    In order to apply the patch, follow the instructions below:

            Install Libnet(1.0.2a) (www.packetfactory.net/Projects/Libnet)
            Install Libdnet(1.2) (libdnet.sourceforge.net)
            Get nmap-2.54BETA32.tgz source tarball(www.insecure.org)
            untar the source: tar zxvf nmap-2.54BETA32.tgz
            Go to the source directory nmap-2.54BETA32
            uncompress patch gunzip nmap-Ring.patch.gz in this directory.
            applied the Ring patch:
     
            patch -p 1 < nmap-Ring.patch
     
            if you have a Linux 2.4 kernel, edit the filter.h and follow
    instructions.
     
            For installation, follow Nmap INSTALL file instructions
    (./configure && make ).
     
            Use the --ring option when you call Nmap
            (example: nmap --ring -O 192.168.1.1)

    We will be very happy to get your feedback on this technique.

    Regards,
    Olivier
