tcpdump-4.0.0.tar.gz

@(#) $Header: /tcpdump/master/tcpdump/INSTALL.txt,v 1.1.2.1 2008-02-06 10:49:22 guy Exp $ (LBL) If you have not built libpcap, and your system does not have libpcap installed, install libpcap first. Your system might provide a version of libpcap that can be installed; if so, to compile tcpdump you might need to install a "developer" version of libpcap as well as the "run-time" version. You can also install tcpdump.org's version of libpcap; see the README file in this directory for the ftp location. You will need an ANSI C compiler to build tcpdump. The configure script will abort if your compiler is not ANSI compliant. If this happens, use the GNU C compiler, available via anonymous ftp: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/gcc/ After libpcap has been built (either install it with "make install" or make sure both the libpcap and tcpdump source trees are in the same directory), run ./configure (a shell script). "configure" will determine your system attributes and generate an appropriate Makefile from Makefile.in. Now build tcpdump by running "make". If everything builds ok, su and type "make install". This will install tcpdump and the manual entry. Any user will be able to use tcpdump to read saved captures. Whether a user will be able to capture traffic depends on the OS and the configuration of the system; see the tcpdump man page for details. DO NOT give untrusted users the ability to capture traffic. If a user can capture traffic, he or she could use utilities such as tcpdump to capture any traffic on your net, including passwords. Note that most systems ship tcpdump, but usually an older version. Remember to remove or rename the installed binary when upgrading. If your system is not one which we have tested tcpdump on, you may have to modify the configure script and Makefile.in. Please send us patches for any modifications you need to make. Please see "PLATFORMS" for notes about tested platforms.
