I know a bit Idle scan but I still have to find a good zombie,meanwhile I did that :
Can you spoof any IP from your network connection? You should check this first... most gateways/ISPs today doesn't allow unlimited spoofing.
then I tried to spoof my ip scanning the same target like that : nmap -vv -P0 -T4 -S xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ( spoofed ) -e eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.50 ( same target as simple scan ) but I obtained every port closed even if nmap scanned clearly the same target as the original trivial scan against xxx.xxx.xxx.50.
Maybe you used connect scan instead of SYN scan here? You can't spoof with the connect scan... Use -sS and use --packet_trace to see what is happening. Check out if your gateway/ISP doesn't drop spoofed packets (in most cases, it does). And generally, by spoofing IP you throw out the results because the scanner doesn't see the replies to his probes. (Are you sure you know what you are really doing? It seems to me that you are not, but I could be mistaken... Sorry if I'm wrong.)
