Hello, I wish to do some low level network stuff using python.
I've googled somewhat and came up with pylibpcap[1], trouble is I can't compile it on my Ubuntu 6.10 workstation. Can someone please suggest a way to read some bits from random ports? I'm looking to write a simple pen-testing tool that would try from one side connecting to ports and from the other side sniff traffic to see on what ports traffic is coming. For pylibpcap I'm getting: """ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/development/personal/pylibpcap/pylibpcap-0.5.1$ python setup.py build running build running build_ext building '_pcapmodule' extension swig -python -shadow -ISWIG -o pcap.c pcap.i pcap.i:72: Warning(124): Specifying the language name in %typemap is deprecated - use #ifdef SWIG<LANG> instead. pcap.i:77: Warning(124): Specifying the language name in %typemap is deprecated - use #ifdef SWIG<LANG> instead. pcap.i:82: Warning(124): Specifying the language name in %typemap is deprecated - use #ifdef SWIG<LANG> instead. /usr/bin/python ./build-tools/docify.py pcap.c /usr/bin/python ./build-tools/docify-shadow.py pcap.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "./build-tools/docify-shadow.py", line 30, in ? raise 'source file doesn\'t look like swigged shadow class code' source file doesn't look like swigged shadow class code error: command '/usr/bin/python' failed with exit status 1 """ [1] http://pylibpcap.sourceforge.net/ [2] http://py.vaults.ca/apyllo.py/126307487 -- Cheers, Maxim Veksler "Free as in Freedom" - Do u GNU ? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
