Smokeping runs as smokeping/smokeping. I am debugging as the root user. I thought that running debug ran the program with output to stdout as it normally runs, but apparently not.
I know that hping in general needs to be run as root (and that it doesn't run properly when it's setuid'd). I'm hoping for a solution that is _not_ running smokeping as root. -----Original Message----- From: Josh Luthman [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 20, 2010 5:05 PM To: Seth Lyons Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [smokeping-users] hping probe What user/group does smokeping run as a daemon? Are you debugging as root? Looks like a permission issue with hping, what's ls -l /usr/local/sbin/hping say?
