Hi, I have tried to write directly to the author (c...@miskatonic.inbe.net) as reported in the man page but the domain does not exist anymore.
I am lost in a glass of water - as we use to say in Italy - and I really do not know where to get some light from as Google is very good .. in giving partial answers or to increase the amount of confusion in somebody's mind :-) The ttysnooping tool which comes with Debian seems to be broken, I can successfully log in after having modified the inittabfile but I can't snoop anything as all I get from the ttysnooping client is a prompt for a password which is swiftly refused - I am assuming the root password is what the tool is asking for. I really do not understand as I am sure I am typing the correct password, what's happening ? I have tried to download the sources and compile them for Slackware but I am still experiencing the same issue, I am a bit confused by the fact that I can't find any "main" repository for the project while there are plenty of tarball coming from different Linux distros. Is there a "vanilla" version I can download and play with or, as alternative, would you be able to tell me the terribly naive mistake I am making ? The first Google's result does not contain anything "down-loadable" and what I have been playing with gives me the issues I have just described: https://packages.debian.org/sid/admin/ttysnoop Is this the "official" website for the project ? https://sourceforge.net/projects/ttysnoop/ Having the latest source would help me as I could start to debug the code without being in doubt of fixing an already fixed bug, Thanks a lot. Pietro.
