('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hello Everyone While Scanning some network targets the other day I ran across a Strange Read Error in Nmap I have searched online as to any clue as to what could be causing this but have been unsuccesful.Several Minutes into the scan of ports 0-65535 it freezes up and gives constantly prints a

Strange read error from x.x.x.x (10049): No such file or directory

I Decided to break out my ethereal to try to get a better understanding of what was going on and did not see anything out of the ordinary no rst flags or anything that would indicate foul play from either side of the connection.However when I checked my Active connections there was no sign that the scan was still continuing it just stopped.Any help would be appreciated thx.
