http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/transconnect/transconnect-1.3-Beta.tar.gz

but now i'need your help please ....
is there anyone can help me to complile (and configure) this program by posting instructions step by step ???


Millions of thanks to anyone may help me !!

(any type of suggestions of already ported similar software will be really appreciated)

Thanks again

have you tried:
./configure
make
sudo make install
??

[zeus]

Yes, but unfortunatly it doesn't work ((

This is what terminal says:

[root@augustus /Volumes/FireWire/transconnect-1.3-Beta] % ./configure
./configure: Command not found.

i think you need tcl.
tcl.sourceforge.net
or, more specifically, one of these two:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/TclTk_8.3.4_FullInstall.bin
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/MacOSXTk8.4a4-2.tar.gz

i'm not sure which. my first thought would be the second, but it just says tk, no tcl. but then again, that's just a file name.

In the Makefile:
Add <blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">code:</font><hr><pre>-Dsocklen_t=int -fPIC</pre>[/quote] to CFLAGS, <blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">code:</font><hr><pre>-fno-common -dynamiclib</pre>[/quote] to LDFLAGS, and <blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">code:</font><hr><pre>-lm</pre>[/quote] to LINUX_LDLIBS.

It should look like this:
<blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">code:</font><hr><pre>
# Makefile for transconnect

CFLAGS = -Wall -Dsocklen_t=int -fPIC
LDFLAGS = -shared -fno-common -dynamiclib
LINUX_LDLIBS = -ldl -lm
</pre>[/quote]

i also found this:
ftp://afni.nimh.nih.gov/AFNI/src/dlcompat/
includes your head, and a wee library that ettercap can use for plugins. or so i'm led to believe

[zeus]

still havin' problems ....

[root@augustus /Volumes/FireWire/transconnect-1.2] % make
cc -Wall -Dsocklen_t=int -fPIC -shared -fno-common -dynamiclib -ldl -lm -o tconn.so tconn.c
tconn.c:53: header file 'dlfcn.h' not found
cpp-precomp: warning: errors during smart preprocessing, retrying in basic mode
make: *** [tconn.so] Error 1
[root@augustus /Volumes/FireWire/transconnect-1.2] %

is there anyone can tell me how to use willy wonka's tips ??

thanks a lot for support !!!

[orange1]

get all the files from that ftp site i posted.
in your terminal, cd to the directory where you downloaded em. type 'make', and then 'sudo make install'
that'll install that library and the header file you're having trouble finding.
