[sweetspot-users] Sweetspot on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

[Nayantha U. <gwn...@gm...>]

Hi,
Is it possible to install & configure Sweetspot on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS?

I'm trying below instructions.

 URL: http://sweetspot.sourceforge.net/

*Installation*

For a typical setup you might need a stand-alone machine sitting at the
border of your broadband network. Packets from broadband network destined
to whatever Internet host will pass through Sweetspot.

Sweetspot installation is as simple as doing ./configure && make && make
install. Then:

   1. In */usr/local/etc/sweetspot/sweetspot.conf* configure
   *inner-interface* and *outer-interface* settings to point to your
   broadband and Internet network interfaces respectively.
   2. Staying in */usr/local/etc/sweetspot/sweetspot.conf* configure
   *user-networks* to list the range of IPs being assigned to your
   broadband clients. Sweetspot would switch packets for these IPs and drop
   all others.
   3. If you intend to do source NAT for your broadband users, configure
   *snat-public-networks* to list IP address(es) that will act as public
   SNAT endpoints.
   4. In */usr/local/etc/sweetspot/filters/anonymous* configure *dnat* targets
   to make Sweetspot re-directing certain type of traffic (likely http/https)
   to your authentication server.

But there is no Directory in */usr/local/etc/ called "sweetspot"*

What can I do now?

Thank you.
