hping3 doesn't work on Intel

[trac.macosforge.org@…]

both the hping2 and hping2 ports are broken on intel:

beejmacbook:~ beej$ sudo hping2 -p 22 localhost
HPING localhost (lo0 127.0.0.1): NO FLAGS are set, 40 headers + 0 data bytes
[send_ip] sendto: Invalid argument
beejmacbook:~ beej$ sudo hping3 -p 22 localhost
HPING localhost (lo0 127.0.0.1): NO FLAGS are set, 40 headers + 0 data bytes
[send_ip] sendto: Invalid argument

works fine on PPC

see here for a possible fix: ​http://lists.apple.com/archives/macnetworkprog/2006/Jun/msg00049.html

[pmq@…]

Just committed the fix that should make it work (on hping3 only). Sorry for the delay. Can you test if it works OK and keep me informed?

hping3 builds fine on Intel for me. hping2 also.

[trac.macosforge.org@…]

mark: the problem wasn't with building. it was buggy behavior from the binaries.

anyway, the current version of hping2 now works, but hping3 is still busted:

beejmacbook:~ beej$ port installed|grep hping|grep active
  hping2 @rc3_2 (active)
  hping3 @20051105_0 (active)
beejmacbook:~ beej$ sudo hping2 -S -p 22 localhost

[pmq@…]

Can you try a DNS lookup, like "resolve www.macports.org"?

10.4 or 10.5?

[pmq@…]

I switched to OS X 10.5 on Intel and it works fine for me:

queinnec@pasiphae:~$ sudo hping3 -S -p 22 localhost
HPING localhost (lo0 127.0.0.1): S set, 40 headers + 0 data bytes
len=40 ip=127.0.0.1 ttl=64 id=10156 sport=22 flags=RA seq=0 win=0 rtt=0.1 ms

^C
--- localhost hping statistic ---
4 packets tramitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.1/0.1/0.2 ms

Either 10.5.x fixed the problem, or a newer Tcl, or else. Please reopen if you still have the problem.

[macosforge.org@…]

still not working for me on santa rosa macbook with Tcl 8.5.4_0 on 10.5.4:

beejmacbook:~ beej$ sudo hping3 -S -p 22 localhost
HPING localhost (lo0 127.0.0.1): S set, 40 headers + 0 data bytes
[send_ip] sendto: Invalid argument

FYI: i can't reopen my own ticket for some reason

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Did you rebuild hping3?

sudo port uninstall hping3
sudo port install hping3

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

Closing due to lack of response.

[macosforge.org@…]

i upgraded before testing.

beejmacbook:~ beej$ port installed hping3
The following ports are currently installed:
  hping3 @20051105_0 (active)

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

Reopening as requested in #16573.

[pmq@…]

Are you sure you made a full clean/rebuild as mentioned before? It still works fine here.

[macosforge.org@…]

seems to work with an install of the latest version:

beejmacbook:~ beej$ sudo hping3 -S -p 22 localhost
HPING localhost (lo0 127.0.0.1): S set, 40 headers + 0 data bytes

[pmq@…]

It works because you didn't use a clean after uninstall and before install last time:

sudo port uninstall hping3
sudo port clean --all hping3
sudo port install hping3
