Has anyone has tried honeyd under colinux as a workaround for XP? ( Colinux allows you to run linux on an existing Windows XP pc, essentially as an 'application'. It doesn't change your booting nor your hard disk partitions) http://www.colinux.org/ ) It was trivial to install and run nmap under coLinux on XP. Nmap worked like a charm. I haven't had time yet, but my goal is to see if honeyd works under coLinux. It's certainly worth a try....

As others have suggested, running Honeyd on XP is problematic. Consider running it on an W2K or other box.
To the get most of Honeyd, you really need to run it on a Unix system. There have been several critical improvements that are not reflected in the current Windows port. Niels.
