I'm using UBUNTU 14.04 as virtual machine on Windows using VMWARE ,
after logging I installed nmap but after trying to run
nmap -sP 10.42.0.0
I get the following message
mass_dns: warning: Unable to determine any DNS servers. Reverse DNS is disabled. Try using --system-dns or specify valid servers with --dns-servers
I'm using
Nmap version 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
any hints ?

Please clarify what you mean by "on windows." What DNS servers do you expect to be configured? Include diagnostic output regarding your DNS setup:cat /etc/resolv.conf

@Frankenstein: Can anything (but itself and the host system) bepinged from your virtual machine by IP?

@Frankenstein: Then it’s a network connectivity problem, and DNS is irrelevant. Which efforts did you apply to route or bridge your virtual machine to the outside world? By the way, Ī̲ start to think it’s a Windows question.

I'm assuming that you are specifying the host with a ip address (eg, x.x.x.x)
It seems that the system you're running it from doesn't have a normal DNS file, /etc/resolv.conf.
So, You can create a default nameserver with any IP (e.g. 6.7.8.9) using following command:
# echo "nameserver 6.7.8.9" >> /etc/resolv.conf
This will set up a default nameserver.
Alternately you can specify it on nmap command without touching the system's configuration.
# nmap --dns-servers 6.7.8.9 x.x.x.x
