Hi Lam,
Very weird happenings with my OS installation but all is well now. I checked the firewall and iptables - both of which I disabled. But on this particular install I had to add port 7070 and it works. Never ran into this problem on my other installs but it works now. I have 2 more installations to attempt so I'll let you know if I run into something similar that may be work documenting for those of us running Linux Capture-HPC servers. From: capture-hpc-boun...@public.honeynet.org [mailto:capture-hpc-boun...@public.honeynet.org] On Behalf Of Van Lam Le Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 7:30 PM To: General discussion list for Capture-HPC users Subject: Re: [Capture-HPC] Capture reverts VM but no browser or URLs. Revert in infinite loop. Hi Andre, I've got the same problem sometime, It can be: + vmware snapshot: if I reboot host operating system (Linux), I can get this problem. I have to take a new snapshot (WinXP) to solve the problem. + Firewall: Even I disable SELinux, but there is iptables still working. That's some points I have got since I used capture-hpc Just send your config.xml, others can have a look and share experiences Cheers, Lam.
