I tried to install honeyd today but got error as:
dnet-config not found....
When I looked at config.log....it was bcoz of some conftest.c....
I then looked at config.log of libdnet and found that there are some error over there....Log file is attached
Please help me out.....
I have gcc (with c++ preprocessor) installed.....I have ran ldconfig on installation of this library......Please help me out....I have searched it many times on google but no method is solving it.

Welcome to LQ.

dnet-config not found....
The basic approach is to do : 1) su
2) yum provides */dnet-config
But this particular package is in the rpmforge.repo : https://rpmrepo.org/RPMforge/Using
.. and after installing the repo, the reply from
'yum provides */dnet-config' is : libdnet-devel
# 'yum -y install libdnet-devel'
will then provide /usr/bin/dnet-config
.....
P.S.: When configure asks for <name>, it usually means
missing package = (lib)<name>-devel
.....
I have already installed libdnet....and now I have installed dnet-config in /usr/bin using 'install dnet-config /usr/bin'
and dnet-config is now there in /usr/bin....but now I get a new error....
"addr_cmp in libdnet... configure: error: you need to install a more recent version of libdnet"
Checking config.log again throws me to that confdefs.h error that I have mentioned above....
I do have latest version of libdnet as on sourceforge...

# yum install honeyd
... installs honeyd-1.5b ( honeyd-1.5b-5.el5.rf.i386.rpm )
+ two dependencies, libevent-1.1a-3.2.1.i386.rpm and
libdnsres-0.1a-4.el5.rf.i386.rpm .
But may be you have no Redhat support ?
If you don't want to pay for support, you will probably
end up with an inconsistent system. The right solution
is to use one of the free versions of Redhat EL.
= CentOS 5.4 ( or Scientific Linux SL 5.3 ).
.....
Which version of honeyd are you trying to build ? ?
.....
Thanks a lot knudfl.... The problem was with libdnet-devel....Installing its rpm sorted out all other things....will configure it today and let you know...
hi
