I'm trying to run nmap on a suse 10 build and although my user acc has root, nmap won't run as root...
I'm new to linux so fumbling a little trying to find out why...

Have you checked the permissions on the file(s) your trying to execute? What Owner and Group rights are currently set-up?
Normally for 'root' to run anything then you need at least 'X' = eXecute on user and/or group or even other.

How was it installed, from a package? It ought to have mode 755. Although it may be owned and grouped for root anyone can run it, just some features require root privs.
