nmap on guest system

Post by Go6a »

Host: windows 7 64, guest: ubuntu 12.04 server. I setup bridge between host and guest, host has wifi card with ip 192.168.1.4 and guest got automatic ip 192.168.1.10. Also I have router in my network, with ip 192.168.1.1. If I run

Code: Select all

nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24
on guest I got

Code: Select all

Nmap scan report for 192.18.1.1
Host is up
Nmap scan report for 192.18.1.10
Host is up
But

Code: Select all

 ping 192.168.1.4
works fine.
Why my host is not visible by nmap but visible by ping?
