[tcpdump-workers] tcpdump No Append Mode

2010-12-27 Thread Manmohan Brahma
Dear all ,

I am Manmohan, working as a Research Associate in the High Performance
Computing Group of CSIR Centre for Mathematical Modelling  & Computer
Simulation. Our group is responsible for Networks and HPC systems security
and management. From couple days I am trying to analyze the CAIDA data and
try to find our how many attacks were made over my and my neighbouring
research organization network.

Generally what all i used to do is go through all the pcap files and search
for my IP and Subnet.

What all i wanted to do is append my backscattered data in one pcap file for
further analysis.

With tcpdump -w backsfile.pcap it passes all the backscattered data  to
baksfile.pcap but in the next iteration it overwrites the same file.

seeking for your response.

regards,

- Manmohan

I'm not aware of any tcpdump options that would allow you to do that. However, 
the utility "mergecap" can merge two or more tracefiles for you. Either 
appended or merged based on timestamps. If you need you can edit the timestamps 
in the sourcefile(s) with the utility "editcap". Both "mergecap" and "editcap" 
are part of the Wireshark suite. See: www.wireshark.org.

Hope this helps (and that it's not violating the etiquette on this 
mailing-list),

[tcpdump-workers] pcap_lib_version problem while installing DAQ

2010-12-27 Thread Appaji_Peruri
Hi all,

Good morning

I am having a problem while installing DAQ which is used by snort . DAQ package 
is searching for the function pcap_lib_version and returning the following 
error .

checking for pcap_lib_version... checking for pcap_lib_version in -lpcap... no

ERROR!  Libpcap library version >= 1.0.0 not found.
Get it from http://www.tcpdump.org

My query is whether libpcap 1.1 includes the above function or not . if so how 
to verify the same.

Regards
