i have installed the application all the prerequistes and follewed the instuctions - but when I try open the webpage I get nothing
i have tried this on two boxes - both dont work
i have confirmed that i have all this install
- Unix (system developed under Linux).
- C compiler
- Pcap library installed to read your network traffic.
- Perl to enable the scripts to run.
- Web server to view reports online (without web server you can always
view data files via the shell).
- Web and cgi access to directories ~ipaudit/public_html/ and
~ipaudit/public_html/cgi-bin/.
- Gnuplot installed to draw web accessible graphs
- OPTIONAL: Perl module Time::ParseDate for the cgi-scripts
SearchIpauditData to work (can omit if necessary)
Here are a few things you can do to see what part of the installation failed.
1) Is there an ipaudit user? Run
'grep -c ^ipaudit: /etc/passwd'
if you get 0, then there is not ipaudit user.
if you get 1, then there an ipaudit ser
2) Is the ipaudit exectuable installed?
ls -l ~ipaudit/bin/ipaudit
if you get something like
ls: cannot access /home/ipaudit/bin/ipaudit:
No such file or directory
Then the binary did not compile and/or get installed.

and i did this steps - to a T
(1) Create ipaudit user
(2) If using a tar file, unpack it
> tar xzf ipaudit-web-*.tgz
OR if using CVS, download it with
> ADDR=pserver:anonymous@cvs.ipaudit.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ipaudit
> cvs -d:$ADDR login
> cvs -d:$ADDR co ipaudit-web
When you're prompted for
CVS password: _
just hit enter.
(3) Change to compile/ directory.
> cd ipaudit-web/compile
(4) Run ./configure and make
(Type ./configure --help for various configuration options)
> ./configure
> make
(5) Log in as root
> su
> make install
> make install-cron
> exit (to leave root)
(6) IMPORTANT! Set your network in ipaudit-web.conf
edit the line in the file ipaudit-web.conf
LOCALRANGE=127.0.0
to correspond to your network. See the comments in ipaudit-web.conf
file or type
man -M ~ipaudit/man ipaudit
for more info.
(7) You're Done! (but see next optional step)
You're done now - at this point you should have a working installation.
Assuming your web server is operational you can point your web browser at
http://\(your-address)/~ipaudit/
to view collected data. It will take between 30 and 60 minutes for ipaudit
to display live data.
Here are a few things you can do to see what part of the installation failed.
1) Is there an ipaudit user? Run
'grep -c ^ipaudit: /etc/passwd'
if you get 0, then there is not ipaudit user.
if you get 1, then there an ipaudit ser
2) Is the ipaudit exectuable installed?
ls -l ~ipaudit/bin/ipaudit
if you get something like
ls: cannot access /home/ipaudit/bin/ipaudit:
No such file or directory
Then the binary did not compile and/or get installed.
3) Is ipaudit running now?
ps -ef | grep -c ipaudit
These tests should be good to start with.
Good luck.
