RE: Oracle 11i nmap scan results

One thing to lok at is the nmap settings you've used.
The default port list is a little under 1700 ports, of the potential 65535
TCP ports
- note the output part that says "(The 1653 ports scanned but not shown
below are in state: closed)" - not all ports were scanned, only common
ports, the default nmap setting.

Try adding '-p 1-65535' to the nmap command - this will take longer, of
course.

Subject: Oracle 11i nmap scan results

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've found nothing on Google about the
issue.

I'm doing a portscan against an Oracle 11i Oracle Applications server. The
output shows:

Starting nmap 3.81 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2005-10-14 14:05 EDT
Interesting ports on oraappserver1.inside.net (172.10.10.86): (The 1653
ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
PORT STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh
111/tcp open rpcbind
113/tcp open auth
139/tcp open netbios-ssn
445/tcp open microsoft-ds
1666/tcp open netview-aix-6
5555/tcp open freeciv
6000/tcp open X11
9090/tcp open zeus-admin
12345/tcp open NetBus
MAC Address: 00:0B:CD:9B:A2:98 (Compaq (HP))

Yet to connect to the box, the users open a browser and connect to
http://oraserver1.inside.net:8040 They can also connect with the same URL
but to ports 8020, and 8010.

There is no firewall on the box, or between the box and the users. Why do
these port not show up on nmap?

Thanks in advance,
Shane
