Compiling Dsniff on Fedora Core 2 (Solution)
by netmask 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

A lot of people have complained that they can't get dsniff to compile on FC2. I put up some very simple patches and instructions to get dsniff to compile on FC2 cleanly. This assume you have Berkely db with 1.85 compatability enabled (full install of FC2 already has this). If you use the exact versions with patches from this site, it should compile without any issues. http://www.enzotech.net/dsniff.html (Download patches or patched distros here. You must use exact versions specified here.) This fixes the following errors: Compiling libnids: (Gcc3 is more strict on ASM code) checksum.c:32:8: missing terminating " character checksum.c: In function `csum_partial': checksum.c:33: error: syntax error before "jz" checksum.c:33:12: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:35:13: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:37:13: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:45:12: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:65:13: invalid suffix "b" on integer constant checksum.c:69:12: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:74:13: invalid suffix "b" on integer constant checksum.c:77:12: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:79:12: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:82:12: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:87:4: missing terminating " character checksum.c:106:24: missing terminating " character checksum.c: In function `ip_fast_csum': checksum.c:107: error: syntax error before "movl" checksum.c:109:17: invalid suffix "f" on integer constant checksum.c:116:17: invalid suffix "b" on integer constant checksum.c:124:13: missing terminating " character checksum.c:140:11: missing terminating " character checksum.c: In function `csum_fold': checksum.c:141: error: syntax error before "addl" checksum.c:143:9: missing terminating " character checksum.c:158:11: missing terminating " character checksum.c: In function `csum_tcpudp_magic': checksum.c:159: error: syntax error before "addl" checksum.c:163:9: missing terminating " character checksum.c:165: error: `__x' undeclared (first use in this function) checksum.c:165: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once checksum.c:165: error: for each function it appears in.) checksum.c:165: error: `__v' undeclared (first use in this function) checksum.c:165: warning: no return statement in function returning non-void checksum.c: At top level: checksum.c:165: error: syntax error before ')' token make[1]: *** [checksum.o] Error 1 Compiling dsniff: (Missing time.h include) sshow.c: In function `client_to_server': sshow.c:225: error: `CLK_TCK' undeclared (first use in this function) sshow.c:225: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once sshow.c:225: error: for each function it appears in.) sshow.c: In function `server_to_client': sshow.c:273: error: `CLK_TCK' undeclared (first use in this function) make: *** [sshow.o] Error 1 (Errors added for google love) -- netmask

Run something at GNOME login
by mostafa.afgani＠world.iu-bremen.de 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Hi, For a while now I've been pondering about how get stuff to run when I login to GNOME. I tried the "Save current setup" option at logoff but to no avail. Basically I would like gDesklets to start whenever I login (or some other program for that matter). There does not seem to be any default script under my home directory by default that I can edit to achieve this. Thanks in advance for any replies, -M

by wpj 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

hi, In FC1, there is a menu(red hat in the left-bottom of the screen) like "Start Menu" in windows. And in windows we can put a shortcut of a program in "Start Menu"->"Program". Where are these files linked to icons and How can I put a shortcut in the "Start Menu"??

Power Surge
by Tom Sapienza 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

As I was updating my Core 2 distribution, my power fluctuated and I had to reboot my computer. I was in the process of retrieving numerous files, many that were already downloaded. How can I track where these supposed downloaded files are and then install them? Can I get update program to recognize these downloads or do I need to install all that I have and then re-do update? Thanks. Tom S.

Issue on ipsec-tools-0.2.5-1.i386.rpm in FC2
by Park Lee 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Hi, Now I'm using ipsec-tools-0.2.5-1.i386.rpm in my Fedora Core 2 ( with kernel 2.6.5 ). Today, I saw in IPsec Tools Homepage (http://ipsec-tools.sourceforge.net/) there is a statement which says: >IMPORTANT: Users of IPsec-tools are strongly recommended to >upgrade to a version released on or after 2004-04-05. Older versions >contain a security problem that bites connections authorized with >X.509 certificates Then, Does the ipsec-tools-0.2.5-1.i386.rpm in FC2 also has such a security problem? (i.e. has some security fixs been added into the ipsec-tools-0.2.5-1.i386.rpm, and can we use the rpm package with no such a danger? ) And, if I use ipsec-tools-0.3.3-1.i386.rpm instead of ipsec-tools-0.2.5-1.i386.rpm while do not change any other components in my FC2(including FC2 itself), will the update cause any conflict or compatible issue to my FC2 box? (i.e. Can I use ipsec-tools-0.3.3-1.i386.rpm in my FC2 box safely? ) Thanks a lot. -- Best Regards, Park Lee <parklee_sel(a)yahoo.com> __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

01 Nov '04

Hi, I am ablout o install FC2 on my machine. I noticed the new FC3 release is scheduled to a wek from today So I just wonder... would there be any real advantage in installing FC2? Or, is there any good reason to wait for FC3?
