Hi, all I would like to enable credentialless discovery, according and following documentation I have installed nmap on midserver (manually, due to security restriction auto install do not work). Installation of nmap was successful.
Mid server is up, validated and working fine. But... when i try to add Nmap capabilities to midserver in configuration of midserver, option is not saved , simply is not possible to add. Tried already multiple time, multiple ways... any suggestion. (Yes global sys property to enable such type of discovery is set to yes, and Yes i dig community forum for similar cases)
Any suggestion why nmap capabilities are not saved in configuration ?

Just wondering, is it maybe that some run-time (VC run-time -don't know which one) nmap requires is not installed on the server?

Also if you look @ the description of Component "Nmap MID Server capability" @ Credential-less Discovery with Nmap it is stated that
A system administrator cannot add or remove this capability manually. Self-hosted customers who have the maint role can modify or delete the Nmap capability, but should not do so.
So I wonder what exactly do you mean by:
when i try to add Nmap capabilities to midserver in configuration of midserver, option is not saved
Are you trying to do what the docs say can't be done?

Yes, but the docs imply even admins can't add the capability to a MID server.
I mean just by creating the capability record.
