Need help getting Kismet installed...

Eyecannon · 09-10-2002

Hello, just like to say that I'm a linux newb, but I'm trying to learn

'./configure' goes through and works, then 'make dep' works, then I do a 'make', and it says at the end:

pcapsource.cc:69: 'DLT_PRISM_HEADER' undeclared (first use this function)
pcapsource.cc:69: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [pcapsource.o] Error 1

Am I doing something incredibly stupid? Please help

Go here.

Well, I got libpcap and tcpdump, and I get similar errors when I try to install those... I'm confused.

JimmyPopAli · 09-10-2002

Which order did you install them in? Make sure you install the pcap stuff first.

Eyecannon · 09-10-2002

I haven't been able to successfully install anything this way

when I try to install libpcap, here's the last lines:

gcc -02 -I. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c ./pcap-linux.c
./pcap-linux.c: In function 'map_arphrd_to_dlt':
./pcap-linux.c:1003: 'DLT_LTALK' undeclared (first use in this function)
./pcap-linux.c:1003: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
./pcap-linux.c:1003: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [pcap-linux.o] Error 1

WTF?

Mentat and jimmypopali did howto's with linux (i am guessing you read those, right) here in the unix forum.

i think they were both for redhat but it should crossover for you.
