This has got me beat ... I just went through the process you specified
and installed the client from http://nz-honeynet etc and compiled the
server (don't use the bin version of the server code) And it worked
straight away ... got about 50 events for the exclusion lists provided
in the release but with the ones I posted above I got a benign visit.

Server is installed on an XP machine and VMware is installed on Vista
with XP as a VM ... I don't have decent hardware to run all on the
same machine. But I don't think this would be an issue as during
development I used to always use a single machine with Fedora
installed.

The only thing that I would suggest is to use the user Administrator
rather than chris ... as that's probably the only difference between
mine and yours.

Its definatly not a problem with the monitors (ignore the file monitor
problem you described) as looking at the logs you specified they are
running correctly. The problem is that the exclusion lists are not
working. With the exclusion lists provided and also mine, there should
not be any read file events or openkey, closekey registry events in
your logs ... do RegistryMonitor.exl, FileMonitor.exl have some wacky
permissions?

The thing thats got me is that Capture is not reporting any error. If
it can't load an exclusion  list it would output an error ...

Sorry to keep making you try stuff but would you be able to go into
your VM, start capture with the exclusion lists I provided (just go
Capture.exe > log.txt) and then open IE and navigate to a website. Can
you send me log.txt? ... or look to see if there is any read file
events, or openkey/closekey registry events. If there isn't any, then
it looks like its working properly in standalone mode and is a problem
with the server mode ... try that first and then we will proceed from
there.

Cheers,
Ramon.
