nmap

[Doug Jenkinson]

So, I'm trying to get nmap to run under cygwin, well, to at least
make/install.
Following the instructions from insecure.org/nmap, I have:
> bzip2 -cd nmap-3.27.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
> cd nmap-3.27
> ./configure
> make
> su root
> make install
as an installation script for version 3.27.
The problem is that I get these errors:
> make: *** No rule to make target `libpcap-possiblymodified/Makefile',
needed by `libpcap-possiblymodified/libpcap.a'.  Stop.
> su: user root does not exist
> make: *** No rule to make target `libpcap-possiblymodified/Makefile',
needed by `libpcap-possiblymodified/libpcap.a'.  Stop.

Does anyone have any insight to these?  Anything at all would be
appreciated, or even a flat stmt that it can't be done will be
grungingly accepted.
