Help setting up SSHDOS and a linux server!
 

hi all my first post here!!!

ok here goes..

i have a linux server and i have putty setup but i wanna use a dos program to log into the server (i have my reasons) and i've only found sshdos/ssh2dos but when i try to run it i get a "NO PACKET DRIVER FOUND." error?

help on setting this up or another ssh program for dos will be amazing :)

thanks for the help in advance!

That sounds to me like ssh[2]dos requires an additional piece of software to interface with the network, in much the same way that the Wireshark [formerly Ethereal] network sniffer requires the WinPcap packet capture driver to capture packets off the network. I suggest you read the docs for ssh[2]dos and see what its dependencies are. Personally though I'd go with putty if you can, it's much simpler.

yes i love putty but it needs to be a dos app and also i kinda know what i need its a "packet driver" but i dont know what it is or where to get it

Hi ECWECWECW,

I've the same message "NO PACKET DRIVER FOUND" when I use ssh2dos.

Have you resolved this problem?

How?

Many thanks.

I got mine to work (after reading your post a few days ago) with the following:

You need the following in your config.sys (using your own path for \NETTCP):
rem The protocol manager:
DEVICE = C:\NETTCP\PROTMAN.DOS
rem The packet driver:
DEVICE = C:\DIS_PKT.DOS
rem The NIC-specific driver (this one for AMD):
DEVICE = C:\NETTCP\PCNTND.DOS

You need the following in AUTOEXEC.BAT (or somewhere else):
SET BIND=PCNTND
\NETTCP\NETBIND

Your PROTOCOL.INI file needs the following lines:
[PROTMAN]
DriverNAme = PROTMAN$

[PKTDRV]
DriverName = PKTDRV$
intvec = 0x60
chainvec = 0x66

[PCNTND]
DriverName = PCNTND$

Your \NETTCP directory needs the following files:
protman.dos
protman.exe
protocol.ini
netbind.com
pcntnd.dos
dis_pkt.dos
wattcp.cfg
ssh2d386.exe (or some other ssh variant)

The top few lines of WATTCP.CFG probably need editing to fit your system

I edited my typo ... this is no longer needed .... but couldn't delete it.

chaninvec should be chainvec
