Wireshark .deb file installation process - No internet
 
Hey All,

Getting ready to install Wireshark on my Servers, but I have no internet, so I am going to download:

wireshark_1.0.7-1ubuntu1_i386.deb

from a Window's machine, throw it on a USB stick, and then boot up Ubuntu and put the stick in the drive.

Can anyone give me the commands to install a .deb file/application in Ubuntu from USB stick?

Code:

sudo dpkg -i wireshark_1.0.7-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
However, it is possible you need to download some dependencies

Code:

dpkg -i wireshark_1.0.7-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
Kind regards,

Eric

Don't forget you'll need to mount the usb stick to access the .deb file.

Thank you guys.

How do I mount the USB stick, btw?

In general it is mounted automaticly.
If not, open a terminal, login as root and type:
Code:

tail -f /var/log/messages
plugin the usb stick
Look a the output in the terminal
You will see something like
Code:

Aug 17 18:11:03 cannabis kernel: [14768.945687]  sdc1
then as root
Code:

mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt
Code:

cd /mnt
ls
