Hi all, I've been having some problems getting the current version of Capture (capture-server-2.1.0-300) up and running on a machine running the current version of Kubuntu and the latest VMWare Server (VMware-server-1.0.6-91891.tar.gz).
I've documented the server build process here: http://www.ukhoneynet.org/2008/07/28/compiling-capture-hpc-on-vmware-server-106/ My honeypot is WinXP SP2 with the default Capture install (capture-client-2.1.0-300), as per the Readme file. I've temporarily disabled iptables on the server and I've checked client/server connectivity by telnetting to the relevant ports. The usernames and passwords also work when tested locally and permissions seem correct. Server IP = 192.168.0.144 Honeypot VM IP = 192.168.0.21 Attempting to process the sample URLs results in this behaviour: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/client_honeypots/capture-server-2.1.0-300$

Any ideas as to why I can't automatically revert the VM and launch the Capture client, or what causes the "VIX Error on connect in connect: One of the parameters was invalid" error?
