9. Libraries

• Many libraries are needed:
  • libpcap - ftp://ftp.ee.lbl.gov/
    • capture and filter packets on the network
  • libnet - http://www.packetfactory.net/libnet/
    • generate packets on the network
  • libnids - http://www.packetfactory.net/libnids/
    • reassemble packets and sessions
  • libdb - http://www.sleepycat.com/ (for non-BSD/Linux systems)
    • saves unique authentications in a database
• which permits to limit abuses :)
  • but a RPM package is available :(
