Install BigBrother on RedHat/CentOS

OK, the first thing you will say is “Why are you using BB?” We like it. Leave us alone. 🙂 The latest version we can find for Linux is 1.9i, which I believe to have been released in 2005 (you can still download it here). But to get it working on the newer OS’s, there are some changes that need to be made. Here are the steps I took to get BigBrother 1.9i working on CentOS 6 x64. Most of the steps are in the instructions, but I included the whole process here. […]

Other RPM Repositories

Just some other RPM repositories I like:

CentOS 6 x64: Fedora/Redat; rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm; RPMForge; rpm -Uvh http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el6/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm; RPMFusion Free; rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/updates/testing/6/x86_64/rpmfusion-free-release-6-0.1.noarch.rpm; RPMFusion Non Free; rpm -Uvh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/updates/testing/6/i386/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-6-0.1.noarch.rpm;

dsniff on Cent OS 6 x86_64

I had a hell of a time getting dsniff to compile on my new Cent OS 6 x64 system. There are too many old requirements that simply wouldn’t install, and I had difficulty finding anyone who had an RPM for this system.

Finally I found it on Fedora!

Install http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm (rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm) and […]

Trouble compiling ipaudit

The latest version of ipaudit I can find is 0.95. I needed to get the functionality transferred to a new machine that is running CentOS 6 x64 (not required for my needs, but it’s the latest & greatest). A make produced the following:

[root@hostname ipaudit-0.95]# make make -C src all make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/ipaudit-0.95/src’ […]
