Summary     : Network exploration tool and security scanner
Description :
Nmap is a utility for network exploration or security auditing.  It supports
ping scanning (determine which hosts are up), many port scanning techniques
(determine what services the hosts are offering), and TCP/IP fingerprinting
(remote host operating system identification). Nmap also offers flexible target
and port specification, decoy scanning, determination of TCP sequence
predictability characteristics, reverse-identd scanning, and more.

Update Information:

zenmap does not work at all because of some pygtk changes (621887)

how to test: run zenmap (from nmap-fronted). Does it run (fixed) or crashes without even starting(still broken)?
