Re: nmap-7.60 on Mac OS X - ssh-publickey-acceptance not working

Thanks! I can confirm that publickeys does not seem to be working, so I am
digging into that.

I would like to see a packet capture for the freeze problem you are
experiencing, since I can't reproduce that. The console output problem is
because the way you are killing Nmap is not letting it restore the console
handling, which it normally does as part of its signal handling. This is
incidental to whatever problem you are actually experiencing.
