Re: can't make sebek-3.0.3 work - [solved]

Hello again,
Now things seem to work :-)
I checked the bugs page and noticed this post:
https://bugs.honeynet.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134
I guess it refers to sebek2, but I installed the sources as described:

apt-get install kernel-source-`uname -r|sed -e 's/-.*//'` kernel-headers-`uname -r`


Then I compiled sebek3 as before. Only differences:
    1. I changed sbk_install.sh before compiling (but that doesn't
matter, does it?)
    2. I added '-f' to the insmods of the script.

Without the -f in insmods, I was getting:
Installing Sebek:
foobar.o: kernel-module version mismatch
    foobar.o was compiled for kernel version 2.4.27
    while this kernel is version 2.4.27-2-386.
  foobar.o install failed

Then I run sbk_install.sh from created sebek-linux-3.0.3-bin.tar. Sebek
gets installed (although the kernel gets tainted). Ethereal reads
packets without problem, although it seems unable to extract any
meaningful data from them (passwords, files etc). Perhaps (?) it decodes
them as sebek2 packets. I guess roo will be able to decode the packets.
Note that I tried sebek both with KEYSTROKE_ONLY=0 and KEYSTROKE_ONLY=1
without problems.

I wonder what the cause of my previous problems was... I'll try to
reproduce it and I'll submit a bug if I crash again.

Thanks again,
Manolis
