You are scanning  192.168.255.0/24

If a host has an ip in that range then you are going to see it unless 
its firewalled. Simple as that.

Hi Jason,

    Thank you.  That is what I though.  Although I am a bit hazy if someone used the route command to add your network 
to their routing table.

    Follow up question: using iptables terminology, I can see nmap finding "-j REJECT", but I can not see nmap finding 
"-j DROP".

    I am asking this as the "nmap -sA network" command can supposedly find firewalled devices.

    What am I missing?


Many thanks,
-T
