I have the source of hping. Now I am trying install it in my fedora core 4.

./configure command runs correctly and after that make gives following error.

libpcap_stuff.c:20:21: error: net/bpf.h: No such file or directory
libpcap_stuff.c: In function ‘pcap_recv’:
libpcap_stuff.c:61: warning: pointer targets in assignment differ in signedness
make: *** [libpcap_stuff.o] Error 1

plz help me !!!!!!!

You need to install the libpcap development libraries. Also, if "configure" runs correctly, you won't get ANY errors....errors are your hint that something isn't running correctly.

Your question makes no sense. Are you asking how I figured that out, or how you can fix it? Fedora core 4 is ancient..the latest is version 9. Either upgrade or get libpcap from source, and compile the development libraries from it.

Issue the following commands:
mkdir /usr/local/include/net
ln sf /usr/include/pcapbpf.h /usr/local/include/net/bpf.h
