= PacketFu
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A library for reading a writing packets to an interface or to a libpcap-formatted file.
|
||
|
|
It is maintained at http://code.google.com/p/packetfu
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PacketFu should live somewhere in your path. I haven't decided yet on packaging, will probably succumb to gems; your best bet is to just drop it into /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8 or where ever you install bindata to.

|
|
|
||
|
|
== Requirements
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
BinData: http://bindata.rubyforge.org
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Dion Mendel's BinData is absolutely critical for PacketFu. Specifically, BinData's subversion r99 or later is required, in order to make use of the :eof patch. So, BinData r101 is included in this distribution until 0.9.3 or later is released.

|
PcapRub: www.metasploit.com/svn/framework3/trunk/external/pcaprub
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Marshall Beddoe's PcapRub is required only for packet reading and writing from a network interfaces (which is a pretty big only). PcapRub itself relies on libpcap 0.9.8 or later for packet injection. It also requires root privilieges to access the interface directly. Perhaps most noteworthy, PcapRub is <b>not</b> included in this distribution, as the vagaries of libpcap driver install can lead to some unexpected results. You are on your own for that.

Wouldn't that be nice? The best way to learn right now is to pore over the documentation, and mess around with packetfu-shell.rb
