installing INetSim

[algemy]

Hi,

I am trying installing INetSim manually because my machine is standalone. I first install the required packages (Net_server, IO_Socket_SSL, perlipq, Net_DNS, IPC-Shareable, and Digest_SHA1). My problem is on the installation of the perlipq library. On the readme file mentioned that you need to install the iptables, because the iptables that BT5 is running meets the version requirement, I didn't think I have to re-install it. However, the next step is to run "make install-devel", I believe this is done when you are installing the iptables. That command is supposed to install the iptables development components in /usr/local. I try running it by itself but I get "No rule to make target "install-devel" stop". I have been trying searching about this but haven't find anything congruent. Do you guys have any ideas on how to go about this?

I have the same problem.
Maybe it is much more easy to install INetSim on BK5R3, but I can't do it.
Maybe someone can help me...

Shouldn't be that hard. What I remember it is not very vise to add custom repositories into sources list so skipping install instructions for Debian based systems. First let BackTrack to meed Perl prerequisites. Perl modules can be installed using various methods under different Linux distributions.
I like Perl CPAN shell. Start CPAN Shell and install required modules:

perl -MCPAN -e shell

install Net::Server
install Net:NS
install IPC::Shareable
install Digest::SHA
install Socket::SSL

Add group:

groupadd inetsim

Run:

inetsim-1.2.3# sh setup.sh
Creating default SSL key and certificate... done.
Setting file permissions... done.

./inetsim --session test

Simply intelligent.
I did not know anything about Perl CPAN Shell.

Thank you very much for your help: now everything goes fine!
