WebStumbler: Updated

FLECOM · 02-22-2005

Hi, just wanted to let everyone know that I (finally) updated my WebStumbler NS Summary -> HTML App... Added page navigation for summaries that are longer than one page, added a MAC Address > Manufacturer function...

I am still working on making it run faster among other things. And I need a more complete list of MAC Addresses > Manufacturers for the function to work better (Also I am going to make the Manufacturer column optional in case you dont want it)

Please let me know what you guys think..

Also since everyone asked last time, I don't think I am going to release the source code since I am such a crappy programmer and you would see all the bubblegum and paperclips that make my app work

I recently coded a php script that generates the Manufacturer names from the mac address. You can take a look at my source and maybe get an idea of how you can do it in whichever language you are currently using.

Strip beginning mac address out of oui.txt along with manufacturer name.

Remove any a list of common extentions such as "corperation", "INC", "incorperated" ect... so you get a more uniform list of manufacturer. This way you wont be displaying "Linksys" as the manufacturer for one AP and "Linksys, INC" as the manufacturer for another.

Match each mac address to the manufacturer by stripping the mac address down to 6 characters and doing a compairison untill you find the correct manufacturer.

My script is located here: http://netstumbler.org/showthread.php?t=14744
Look at the file ouistrip.php to see how I stripped the manufacturer names.
Look at the file summary2db.php to see how I got the manufacturer name for each mac address.
If you don't know what some of the php functions do just go to www.php.net and type them in the search, for a definition and example.

Also please post the source code

Even if it is crappy it might help someone else understand the process of how to manipulate summary files in whatever language you are using.

Did you ever code it? if so could you link to your post with source

beakmyn · 02-22-2005

I've coded 2 programs see signature. While the source is not publicly available I will share relevent portions of it upon request. Send me an email or PM.

BTW, it's written in *ack* VB 6 *ack*

Probably a bit too complicated for my skills

Anywho, the summaries contain all the information I need to put the pages together... Also this application is written in C++, VB eeewww

lol, I kid, I kid

I will think about the source thing

About the manufacturer name basically all it does is compare the first half of the MAC address to a file with a MAC address > Manufacturer list that you can edit yourself (its the macs.ini). Almost exactly how you have it setup, I may have to tweak my code a bit so I can steal your database
