I have (at least) one last question regarding components. The version of nmap which I end up with after the install is 6.47. It seems I had recently encountered something Indicating nmap (somewhere around) 5.51 as the preferred version. Could someone please elaborate on the appropriate version of nmap? Thanks in advance for your help!
