Hi Mike,

This does seem odd, as it was an nmap2 bug from last year that has been fixed 
for some time.  Any other symptoms or error messages that may provide some 
help?  Any chance you can catch a core file and report where it segfaults?

To do this run "limit coredumpsize unlimited" at the command prompt and then 
run nmap2, cause the segfault as you normally would, then open the file with 
gdb: "gdb $OS_BIN/nmap2 X", where X is the name of the newly created core file. 
 From the gdb prompt type "where" and you should see the calling sequence where 
it crashed.

Hopefully we can gather some more information this way and figure out what the 
problem is.
