Hi,

I was running the autopkgtest of nbtscan on a dedicated server and the
relevant provider captured the scanning and was not happy. Given that
the test does not actually evaluate any responses, I think it would not
degrade the test in any way if it were scanning the loopback interface
instead and thus avoid tripping up paranoid hosters. I'm attaching a
patch for your convenience.

Helmut
