Query Related to NMap v5.0

[Prasad Kamath <prasadvkamath1 () yahoo com>]

Dear Friends,
 
I have a query related to NMap and I hope you will spare some time from your busy schedule to help me out.
 
I am using NMap v5.0 and I am using the local Tata Indicom wireless CDMA Internet connection. I realized that NMap 
doesn't work / scan over my wireless network because when I tried the same installable from a wired LAN, it worked. Is 
there any way I can make NMap work over a wireless CDMA network or a wi-fi network? Even the Nessus server cannot 
register over the Tata Indicom wireless netwrok. Any way to make both of these tools work?
 
I am the local administrator. This is the error message NMap throws: 
 
*********************************************************
WARNING: Using raw sockets because ppp2 is not an ethernet device. This probably won't work on Windows.
 
socket troubles in UltraScanInfo::Init: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access 
permissions.

Thanks in Advance & Warm Regards
