[dns-operations] Fwd: Execution Problems WAS (Re: friday version of dnscap)

[Tyler Reguly]

This tool caught my interest but I've had no luck with it so far..

After solving the --enable-bind problem..

(previously I was replacing  ns_put32 with NS_PUT32 and including
-lresolv in order to get the fp_nquey function)

I'm still having other issues... I get the help output regardless of what I do

Using man page example:
root at iMac:/home/htregz/dnscap# ./dnscap -d - | tcpdump -r -
dnscap: usage error: unrecognized command line option

usage: dnscap
        [-avfg6] [-i <if>]+ [-o <file>] [-l <vlan>]+ [-p <port>]
        [-m [quire]] [-h [ir]] [-q <host>]+ [-r <host>]+
        [-d <base> [-k <cmd>]] [-t <lim>] [-c <lim>]

note: the -? or -\? option will display full help text
tcpdump: truncated dump file; tried to read 24 file header bytes, only got 0


Using email example:

root at iMac:/home/htregz/dnscap# ./dnscap -g -c2
dnscap: usage error: unrecognized command line option

usage: dnscap
        [-avfg6] [-i <if>]+ [-o <file>] [-l <vlan>]+ [-p <port>]
        [-m [quire]] [-h [ir]] [-q <host>]+ [-r <host>]+
        [-d <base> [-k <cmd>]] [-t <lim>] [-c <lim>]

note: the -? or -\? option will display full help text


I'm running Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS PPC.

Thanks,
Tyler
