Hello Jim, I doubt this will be added. You can get the patch from here:
http://ftp.die.net/pub/linux-kernel-tarpit/ What I did to get this working (actually, compiled--haven't really tested)... Step 1: Download linux-2.4.18-tarpit.patch to ./source/linux/. Step 2: Edit ./source/linux/buildtool.cfg and add this to the end: <File linux-2.4.18-tarpit.patch> Server = cvs-sourceforge envname = TARPIT_PATCH directory = linux revision = HEAD </File> # note, I'm quite sure 'Server = cvs-sourceforge' is wrong, what is the # correct thing to put there, anyone? Step 3: Edit the make file ./source/linux/buildtool.mk, add this (before cp $(LINUX_CONFIG) linux/.config): cat $(TARPIT_PATCH) | patch -d linux -p1 Step 4: ./buildtool.pl srcclean linux ./buildtool.pl source linux Step 5: Yikes! I forgot what to do at this point... I believe 'make menuconfig' to enable TARPIT, or run: ./buildtool.pl build kernel ...then wait until the build pauses, then type: m [enter] You can check the status of the build by typing (on another session): tail log/buildtool until you see something like: CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_TARPIT=m ? To the expirienced linux hackers: you are probably laughing at me right now. I'm still learning, sorry. -cpu Jim Ford wrote: > I see here: > http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1723 > that there is a patch to IPtables, to add an option to tarpit a port scanner. Are there any plans to add this option to the Bering uClibc? It's been a while since I've built a kernel, but I guess if I did the homework I could do it with uLibc (IIRC there's a doc somewhere).
