As you have told,libpcap couldn't be installed on the SCO. I have read the install.txt,and found you are right. I think I should use the tcpdump instead. Thanks for your help. sufei7099 2008-06-04 发件人: Guy Harris 发送时间: 2008-06-04 15:24:28 收件人: tcpdump-workers () lists tcpdump org 抄送: 主题: Re: [tcpdump-workers] SCO libpcap sufei7099 wrote:
How to install libpcap on SCO OPEN SERVER? I download the latest version of libpcap, but I can not install it on sco successfully. The phenomena is that some macro definition can not be found. I am wishing for your help.
To quote the INSTALL.txt file in the latest version of libpcap:
If you use SCO, you might have trouble building libpcap from this release. We do not have a machine running SCO and have not had reports of anyone successfully building on it. Since SCO apparently supports DLPI, it's possible the current version works. Meanwhile, SCO provides a tcpdump binary as part of their "Network/Security Tools" package: http://www.sco.com/technology/internet/goodies/#SECURITY There is also a README that explains how to enable packet capture.
That's still true; none of us, as far as I know, have a machine running SCO OpenServer. Furthermore, the *ONLY* libpcap stuff I could find at the SCO Skunkware site: http://www.sco.com/skunkware/ is a tarball of the libpcap 0.6.2 source which appears to be *identical* to the standard libpcap 0.6.2 source release, which was in the "OSR5/UW7 Source Archives" directory, so perhaps libpcap 0.6.2 worked on OpenServer 5, and some change to libpcap after 0.6.2 or some change to OpenServer after OpenServer 5 caused it no longer to work. If you can tell us what the compiler errors are when you try to compile the current version of libpcap, we *might* be able to debug the problem. - This is the tcpdump-workers list.
