Help installing hping
 

I recent'y installed hping2 with synaptic but when i type it in the cmd line it says cmd not found. Ok, well i went back and seen a hping avail for download too and figured i would give that a try but i get an "error rpm(1)" on install any ideas whats going on? I thought, am thinking about downloading the source, but the source is release 2, which i assume to be hping2 but it isn't running. Thanks in advance for your help

coult it be that hping needs root permissions? how bout whereis hping to see where it is

it's in /usr/sbin/hping I have tried to run it as root but with the same error

when i type hping2 man the help pages come up

what happens when you type "/usr/sbin/hping" as root?

you think u are so smart don't you Demonbane.....lol........that was the prob...i feel pretty stupid right about now.
thanks
