Bizarre. I use ACLs in my kernel daily, and I use nmap almost daily, and haven't seen this. If you re-add ACLs with a fresh kernel build, does the problem come back? Could you look at ktraces of nmap with and without ACLs and see what causes it? Do you have ACLs enabled on any file

Alright, it had nothing to do with ACL's. Unknown to me, someone got on that machine and enabled the firewall, and added rules. Those rules were causing the problem (I'm not sure why he added a firewall on a machine already behind one on a 192.168.0.0/24 network). Anyway, sorry for wasting
