2014-05-27build: Allow to build astraceroute and flowtop without GeoIP supportTobias Klauser1-2/+6
Both tools are already prepared to handle NULL return values of the geoip_* lookup functions, so we might as well build them without geoip support if not needed/present. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2014-04-11doc: curvetun: add documentation how to use libsodium instead of libnaclChristian Wiese1-1/+19
Add information to INSTALL on how to build with libsodium. Signed-off-by: Christian Wiese <chris@opensde.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2014-04-10doc: add documentation of DESTDIR usage in INSTALL and make helpChristian Wiese1-0/+8
Document the newly introduced DESTDIR option. Signed-off-by: Christian Wiese <chris@opensde.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2014-03-04docs: install: Fix a minor typoTobias Klauser1-1/+1
s/faily/fairly/ Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2013-07-11docs: install: recommend gnuplot for ifppsDaniel Borkmann1-0/+1
ifpps supports a gnuplot-like output. Therefore, recommend the use of gnuplot. It is not mandatory though. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-07-11docs: install: state that we do have an option for distro buildDaniel Borkmann1-11/+14
Brind the doc more up to date since we do have DISTRO=1 et al available from the build system. Thus, no manual hand-tweaking needs to be done, only in rare cases if really necessary. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-07-11docs: describe how to build bpf_jit_disasmDaniel Borkmann1-0/+11
Since it's out of the normal build process for now, describe how to build it for advanced users. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-07-11docs: install: simplify dependency descriptionDaniel Borkmann1-18/+21
Make this more clear by proper indent and slightly improved description. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-07-05Makefile, INSTALL: Simplify clean/uninstall Makefile targetsTobias Klauser1-7/+15
Streamline the Makfile targets by separating the clean targets (which only affect the build tree) from the uninstall targets (affecting files installed in the system). Do this by renaming the 'distclean' target to 'uninstall' and removing unnecessary aliases. The 'distclean' target serves now as a way to remove build files and Config. The 'mrproper' will bring the source into a pristine state as checked out from git. Summary of the new/changed targets: clean: remove all build related files (but not Config) distclean: 'make clean' + remove Config mrproper: remove all files not in git repository uninstall: remove all files installed by us from the system, but not affecting the build environment. %_uninstall: tool specific uninstall The following targets were removed: mostlyclean, realclean and clobber. Also the target names in the INSTALL file are adjusted. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2013-07-05INSTALL: minor: Fix typo 'mainling list'Tobias Klauser1-1/+1
This should be 'mailing list' instead of 'mainling list'. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2013-06-28Merge branch 'config'Tobias Klauser1-1/+2
Pull in the configure script. From now on, before calling 'make' the './configure' script will need to get called. This is no autotools generated script, but manually written to check for netsniff-ng's dependencies.
2013-06-24README, INSTALL: minor: Remove trailing whitespacesTobias Klauser1-2/+2
Remove some trailing whitespaces from documentation. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2013-06-24configure: Add configure script used to detect NaClTobias Klauser1-1/+2
In order to use an installation of NaCl provided by the distro or by previous manual installation, provide a configure script which checks for nacl's presence. Also check of libnl-genl headers. More checks of the other libraries depended on by netsniff-ng as well as checks for necessary kernel headers should be added here too. The configure script is preliminary and has not yet extensively been tested on multiple systems. The concept was inspired by the configure script of trinity and iproute2.

2013-05-14docs: add note about zsh and vim filesDaniel Borkmann1-1/+6
At least mention their existance in the INSTALL file. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-05-13docs: update install document to current repo statusDaniel Borkmann1-6/+7
mausezahn dependencies and build options were not yet documented. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-05-13staging: add mausezahn staging directoryDaniel Borkmann1-10/+3
After some back and forth, we decided that it is easier to maintain mausezahn in a staging directory until it is fully reworked and cleaned up to be ready to be fully integrated. This way, it is better than having it in a separate branch, and we can also accept patches from outside more easily. Also, while at it, fix up some function mismatches with libcli. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2013-05-06docs: install: mention recommended toolsDaniel Borkmann1-2/+2
Mention pkg-config and gpg as optional tools for verifying tags resp. getting build flags. If they are not wanted / present, then relative Makefiles need to be edited by hand. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-04-11docs: install: update mausezahn locationDaniel Borkmann1-1/+1
It is accessable e.g. through: git pull git://repo.or.cz/netsniff-ng-old.git with-mausezahn Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-03-17nacl scripts: include common header and rename build_nacl.shDaniel Borkmann1-3/+3
Add a uniform header comment to the two scripts as present in other scripts in this repository as well. Also rename build_nacl.sh into nacl_build.sh to stay conform in naming. For this, also update all mentions of build_nacl.sh to nacl_build.sh. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com>
2013-03-15all: import netsniff-ng 0.5.8-rc0 sourceDaniel Borkmann1-0/+160
We decided to get rid of the old Git history and start a new one for several reasons: *) Allow / enforce only high-quality commits (which was not the case for many commits in the history), have a policy that is more close to the one from the Linux kernel. With high quality commits, we mean code that is logically split into commits and commit messages that are signed-off and have a proper subject and message body. We do not allow automatic Github merges anymore, since they are total bullshit. However, we will either cherry-pick your patches or pull them manually. *) The old archive was about ~27MB for no particular good reason. This basically derived from the bad decision that also some PDF files where stored there. From this moment onwards, no binary objects are allowed to be stored in this repository anymore. The old archive is not wiped away from the Internet. You will still be able to find it, e.g. on git.cryptoism.org etc. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
