  1. Hey, thanks very much. I'm already using pcap for sniffing - I didn't know you could use it to build packets though. That's nice, seems much easier to work with than libnet!
  2. Hi everyone! New user here - I'm currently looking for some kind of resource for the Libnet library. I've been slowly going through the Hacking; ... Exploitation by J. Erikson and the most interesting aspect so far has been packet crafting with libnet. Problem 1 is that the library used in the book is libnet1.0, which also comes loaded onto the linux live cd (long, long lost). However the up-to-date version is libnet1.4. That wouldn't be so bad - I've been converting some of the simpler programs to the newer libnet version; managed to get an arpspoof and a targeted TCP flood working by examining the libnet files but they've changed a LOT of stuff; new handle types, new memory management, new ptag(s) for the packets and lots of new functions - it feels like there's loads of stuff I can't do yet without a better understanding of the library and how it works. Problem 2 is that I can't find any good resources on using libnet since it updated (which, from what I can gather was about 2007...). There's a couple of old sites with advice on old libnet but after hours of googling literally the only thing I could find written in v1.4 was a single arpspoof program and about 500 words about the code. If anyone has any good up-to-date resources for libnet I'd be eternally grateful. Also curious - packet-crafting seems really interesting and pretty cool - yet I'm not seeing a much written about it in general which surprised me; do people just use GUI packet-crafters these days? Or are all the interesting exploits more application layer these days? Thanks for your help! Escari
