Thread: Help with compile errors

Howdy one and all. It’s been a long time since I posted (or lurked) here. But, I kept receiving the quarterly (monthly?) updates in my email. I have a small issues I’ve been working on, and when I got the note yesterday, I thought "here’s a new avenue…." When I logged in today, the software said that I was last logged in back in 2006 sometime. Wow.

Anyway, I’ve finished taking the SANS Security 504 class (as I do a lot of incident response.) I was able to do almost everything in the class from my Ubuntu (7.0.4) laptop, even though they recommend Red Hat. There’s only a few tools I couldn’t find from the repositories. One in particular, Hydan, I had to download, and compile manually. No big deal, though the compilation threw a bunch of errors. I don’t know a lot about the errors, and I was hoping someone might know better where the problem lies. Is it Ubuntu? Something else? Easily fixed?

After downloading, I unzipped the tarball. From there, I just followed the directions in the README, and ran make in the directory. Here are the errors that were output:

Code:

So, if anyone sees anything I might try, let me know. I’d love to get Hydan working.

Nope

What version of Ubuntu are you using?

7.04

How much RAM do you have?

I’m pretty sure 256MB. (Not at the laptop at the moment, I’ll have to check later)

Are you using a SMP kernel?

I’m not sure. I plead ignorance on what a SMP kernel is. The install was standard, right off the live cdrom.
