Hi there, I'm having problems compiling ntop-3.0 on Sparc Sun Solaris 2.7 (e250 with gcc 2.95.2 / gnu binutils 2.14 / gnu make 3.78.1) and I can't for the life of me get it working, plus I'm no developer so my knowledge of C is poor so sorry about that...
libpcap-0.8.1 which other apps seem to have been happy with (done with the basic ./configure, make, etc.). but my config seems to fail on the following: Critical library/include tests... checking for pcap... checking pcap.h usability... yes checking pcap.h presence... yes checking for pcap.h... yes checking net/bpf.h usability... no checking net/bpf.h presence... no checking for net/bpf.h... no checking pcap-bpf.h usability... yes checking pcap-bpf.h presence... yes checking for pcap-bpf.h... yes checking for pcap_open_live in -lpcap... no checking for pcap_open_dead in -lpcap... no checking for pcap_lib_version in -lpcap... no checking for pcap_setnonblock in -lpcap... no ******************************************************************* * * ERROR: pcap header, bpf or library routines are missing * (yes means it was found, no means it was not found) * * pcap.h...yes * net/bpf.h...no * pcap-bpf.h...yes * pcap_open_live() in -lpcap...no * * (One of the bpf files is required, but either will do) * *>>> No way to proceed. * *??? 1. Install libpcap *??? and Rerun ./configure *??? or 2. Use the --with-pcap-root= option * ******************************************************************* I've had a look through the archives and the config.log and there's either nothing relavent or which leads me to a solution for this. All paths seems to be going to /usr/local/lib or /usr/local/include and everything's using the GNU tools. The only thing that I did get suggested to check was this which I beleive shows that the library supports the routine that it's failing on?: -bash-2.05b$ /usr/local/bin/nm /usr/local/lib/libpcap.a | grep live 00000248 T pcap_open_live -bash-2.05b$ /usr/ccs/bin/nm /usr/local/lib/libpcap.a | grep live [42] | 584| 2024|FUNC |GLOB |0 |1 |pcap_open_live Any help or pointers what to check would be greatly appreciated as I'd like to get this working as it looks a great product and I'm very limited on platforms that I can put this on (plus this is my nagios box so it would be handy!).
