I’m doing the Responder machine and I’m noticing that the majority of the ports shown in the walkthrough are missing.
Walkthrough example
My results
Host is up (0.36s latency).
Not shown: 65534 filtered tcp ports (no-response)
PORT STATE SERVICE VERSION

Service detection performed. Please report any incorrect results at https://nmap.org/submit/ .
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 274.55 seconds
I am completely new to ethical hacking and confused on what’s going on.
For the same problem in the future: This works for me … The server is using name-based Virtual Hosting for manage the request of the page, as the writeup says, you should manage and add the host to the /etc/host locally … basically, the server is not using DNS server and you need to specify the host and the domain name in your own /etc/host.
10.129.247.238 unika.htb For example
could be consider as an error" some restrictions in host.allow or host.any, but first you should be worried to access to your browser to the page or via pings, after that you should not get tcpwrappers output in the scan.
