Only a slightly newer build of Parallels Desktop. After installing nmap doesn't work anymore, after uninstalling (and unfortunately a reboot - shivers!) nmap works flawlessly. So it is a parallels issue and I do hope their support team takes this major BUG seriously... Same here. Only a slightly newer build of Parallels Desktop.

Although I haven't done extensive testing I was able to successfully use nmap prior to installing Parallels and could not immediately after installing Parallels. I also tried uninstalling Parallels and nmap works again. In this case, it appears to be directly related to the Parallels software being installed. That may be a different issue, then.

One thing to note is that nmap works fine when dong a TCP-Connect scan in user mode, but when attempting to perform a SYN scan that requires root privileges is when it doesn't work.

Tried nmap 4.21ALPHA and nothing seems to do the trick. I even tried removing fw0 completely (sudo ifconfig fw0 remove), to no avail. Keep us posted if you find a fix. I’m having the same issue.
