Description

Hello!

After installing & configuring proxychains-ng I'm unable to do anything with Nmap, I can still use proxychains-ng with tor service tho.

Getting the error :

"nmap: netutil.cc:1350: int collect_dnet_interfaces(const intf_entry_, void_): Assertion `rc == 0' failed.
Aborted"

Searched over the net without any luck.
I'm on Kali 2.0, fully updated.

Thanks.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with proxychains-ng/proxychains4 and Nmap on the reported Kali 2.0 setup, comparing it with the working Tor case. Trace the reported assertion in Nmap's netutil interface collection and determine whether the proxychains interaction can be corrected; done means Nmap runs successfully through the configured proxy without the assertion.
