I am looking for linux utility that checks if a specified machine's network device is in promiscious mode or not. c source is prefered so I could maybe modify (if needed) it so it actively search for such devices and syslog such finds.
You can't search for promisc devices, as they don't advertise them- selves in any way. Chkrootkit[1], though, will check the local machine for a promisc interface, as well as other signs of possible badness. [1]: http://www.chkrootkit.org/
