arping/INSTALL This is the short version. For more info see the README. Dependencies ------------ libnet 1.1 or newer https://github.com/libnet/libnet or http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libn/libnet/libnet_1.1.2.1.orig.tar.gz Note: Libnet 1.1.5 or later needed for Linux capability support. libpcap: www.tcpdump.org optional: libcap Adds support to drop Linux privileges. For debian, just: apt-get install libpcap-dev libnet1-dev libcap-dev Installing, short version ------------------------- ./configure # if "configure" doesn't exist, run "./bootstrap.sh" make # the binary will be created as src/arping make install If your environment is not set up right (hello Solaris), you may need to add stuff to the configure line, like: ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib -L/opt/csw/lib -R/opt/csw/lib" Installing, longer version -------------------------- Note that arping 2.x requires libnet 1.1 or newer to work. It will NOT work with libnet 1.0.x. Arping 1.x works with libnet 1.0.x, but it's not included in the same package anymore. Standard autotools: ./configure && make && make install The autotools build system is new with arping 2.09. If you have problems with it I want to hear about it. Email me at thomas@habets.se and attach the config.log file. If it failed during 'make', give me all the output from that. Examples that I use on some systems: Linux: apt-get install libnet1-dev libpcap-dev ./configure OpenBSD: ./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/libnet-1.1 \ LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib FreeBSD: pkg_add -r libnet115 # (or similar) pkg_add -r libpcap # (or similar) ./configure CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include/libnet115' \ LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib/libnet115' Solaris: ./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" \ LDFLAGS="-R/usr/local/lib -L/opt/csw/lib -R/opt/csw/lib" IRIX: ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib"
