Libcap Installation Question
When I am trying to install 'ngrep' in UNIX by issuing the 'make install clean' command in the ' /usr/ports/ngrep location ', I got an 'Error code 1'. It also states that there is a dependencies for pcap.2 which is not found in ' /usr/ports/net/libcap ' So, I go to '/usr/ports/net/libcap' - with the intention to issue a 'make install clean' command. However, UNIX gave me a message that there is no such file or directory. Any ideas, how I may be able to install libcap for UNIX? Thanks. Regards, Linux Quest - No need to miss a message.

Command Execution Using Script - Similar to Windows Batch File-Like Script (Coding Help)
Dear FreeBSD Communities, Lets say, I wanted to create a Perl script to execute a very simple nmap command as listed below, may I know how do I do it? unix# nmap 192.168.1.2 I know we need to save it in .pl extension. May I know what else I need to do? I have researched and google this for the entire week, but I still can't find the solution. For example in Windows, all I need to do is to type "nmap 192.168.1.2" and save it in a text file with the extension .bat - and everything will be taken care of. I hope someone can share with me the simple coding to solve this problem. Thank you so much, guys :) Regards, Linux Quest Regards, Linux Quest - No need to miss a message.

How about a Start-Up Script that execute every 30 minutes for resolv.conf???
Dear Jay & The FreeBSD Communities, Thanks for putting your time and patience to help me out. Anyway, I tried it out, both changing the rc.conf and the dhclient.conf (one at a time). After that (for both of the ways), I did manage to stop the resolv.conf from being overwritten after the PC reboot. However, when I ping 192.168.52.1 or 192.168.52.2, the error msg says that there is no route to both of the IP. Even after I add the default route by using command line ... I am still unable to ping google.com. Then, I undo everything by using VMWare... (including undo the DHCP configuration in rc.conf) so that I am able to ping google.com again. Since, I desperately needed to connect to the Internet at this point of time, I create a file called resolv.conf in /root ... I am thinking how can I create a script so that it can copy resolv.conf from /root to /etc/resolv.conf every 30 minutes at start up - This is because I don't wanna manually type in "cp /root/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf" every 30 minutes. Hope somebody can share with me the simple coding.

Re: DNS Resolver Problem
Dear Jay, Thanks. That is exactly what I mean (sorry not explaining it properly). My network is DHCP enabled. When the lease expired, the resolver is also cleared out. Any ideas how I can configure a static DNS IP? Here is what I think may work (Please correct me if I am wrong)... Perhaps I should configure a static IP on this client using FreeBSD. May I know how can I do that, and at the same time, I would also like to disable DHCP enable settings. Thanks again.

If the latter, setting a static IP might come back to haunt you. I suspect from the way you describe it, that you control a local router that's giving bogus DNS information out with its DHCP lease, in which case the simplest fix is to adjust said router so it Doesn't Do That (tm).

Re: NMap in FreeBSD Problem ...
Thanks ... I think the 'rehash' command does help a bit... at least now, when I type 'nmap', I can see the help manual (before this, there was just error msg). However, now, when I type 'nmap 192.168.1.10', (where 192.168.1.10 is the PC that I wanted to scan) ... I got the message ... 'Limiting closed port RST response from 283 to 200 packets/sec' May I know how do I get nmap to scan the 192.168.1.10 computer? Thanks.

If you're using [t]csh this is nessesary to make the shell discover new commands. You only need to do "make install clean" in ports/security/nmap, not in local/bin/nmap.

Nmap Scan from FreeBSD OS - Coding Question
I am currently doing a simple penetration testing for my company in a LAN environment. Yes, I have already downloaded NMap by using the 'make install' command... and it did fetched the required files from insecure.org successfully. My question will be, how can I create a Network Program in .c that will invoke the nmap capabilities to scan the network or computers?

How to compile first network program? E.g. to PING google.com
May I know how do I write a simple C network program in UNIX FreeBSD? I have bought some UNIX Network Programming books, but the problem is, the book straight away jump into some complex program - without showing how to compile and execute a simple program in the correct location in UNIX. I even did some searches online, which eventually lead me to this particular article at http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/socket/ - but this article still doesn't show me how to compile a simple C program. I know a bit about echoing a Hello World by simply typing the following:- abc# echo "Hello World!" Hello World! abc# So, my question is ... 1.How can I write a very simple C network program ... to lets say I wanted to ping google.com ??? 2.Which directory / location in UNIX should I go to? 3.How do I compile and execute the simple C network program - lets say doing a ping on google.com???

So I typed man dns, but I can't find the DNS manual, and yes... I know my ISP DNS IP address. But I don't know where to configure it in FreeBSD. Hope someone can help me. Thanks. __ Do You Yahoo!?
