The mounted directory does not give The Sleuth Kit the needed information. You will have to make an image of the partition (using a 'dd' port for example) and run the tools on that image. brian |

Thanks for the feedback. I commented out the line in autopsyfunc.pm, but still had the problem with not finding the dll. I saw where it was resetting the PATH later on in the initialization file and commented out that line as well, but to no avail. After flailing around a while I finally decided to take a look inside the autopsy script itself. It was doing the same thing with resetting the PATH to be blank. I commented out that line and things took off. Also thanks for the comment on the image file. I had a fundamental misunderstanding of how it was working. I thought the image import was actually doing the "dd" for me. Sorry for the total ignorance, but I am just learning.
