Snort testing


Posted by iceburn on March 22, 2005 05:44:07

I'm trying to test my Snort installation but the programs I've heard don't work.
I've tried to use the following:

**IDSwakeup -> can't compile iwu.c (even with libnet installed)

iwu.o(.text+0x1c3): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `libnet_open_raw_sock'
iwu.o(.text+0x25d): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `libnet_write_ip'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

**sneeze -> doesn't generate traffic at all (no error on execution... yes I have Net::RawIP installed)

**snot -> can't find it anywere


Can someone help me? Sugestions to other programs are also welcome.

Go get a copy of metasploit and use that against some target servers (that you own). That's the right way to do it. Most of the old stick/snot/etc tools really don't work anymore against Snort (or much of anything else).
