Terry, You're replies are useful, I've made sure all steps are correct, however other sources suggest we initiate the ANT before compiling the Capture-Hpc, so we decided to set up the ant, and once the ant is initiated an error popped out saying net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties "cannot be found" .
Hmm.. running ANT is crucial to compile capture-hpc ? and yes thanks for the alternative solution of spiderhoney network CAPTURE, we are giving it a go now, perhaps the older version has lots of bugs. Are there any useful installation guides available? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: capture-hpc-boun...@public.honeynet.org [mailto:capture-hpc-boun...@public.honeynet.org] On Behalf Of Terry MacDonald Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2012 9:18 AM To: General discussion list for Capture-HPC users Subject: Re: [Capture-HPC] Capture-HPC VMWare error Mohamed, If you still can't get it working, then maybe this project is better suited. http://pl.honeynet.org/HoneySpiderNetworkCapture The polish honeynet project have rewritten capture-hpc to work with virtualbox, and extended it with other functionality. I've not used it yet so can't comment on how easy it is to install. But it may be worth a look? If you do decide to try it I'd love to hear feedback to this list on how it went?
