2. Installation

2.1 How to obtain popsneaker

The latest release can always be downloaded from ixtools.de.

2.2 Requirements

In order to use popsneaker, you need a glibc based system. Most modern linux distributions come with this library.

Furthermore Tcp4u is needed. It is available at the following sites:

ftp://papa.indstate.edu/winsock-l/WindowsNT/Develop and its mirrors, http://download.com and http://www.hotfiles.com.

Tcp4u is distributed with Debian GNU/Linux 2.2. If you are aware of any other distributions, please let me know.

You can also get prepackaged versions for Debian and Red Hat at ixtools.de.

If you don't have or don't want to install this library, you can get a statically linked binary of popsneaker from ixtools.de.

2.3 Compilation and installation

In order to compile and install popsneaker on your system, type the following in the base directory of the popsneaker distribution:

% ./configure
% make
% make install

Since popsneaker uses

autoconf
you should have not trouble compiling it. Should you run into problems please report them to me.
