Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

oh, you have to start autoscan-network-daemon first ....
works now!!

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

The UI on Maemo is badly broken though. Can we hope for some more hildonization, maybe decreasing all font sizes so that UI actually fits tablet screen?

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

I have been running from the icon that setup put in "Extras"
Running from terminal did not make any difference. The wizard works for "New" but hangs up on "Restore", even though I have saved prior sessions. Here is the output from a terminal session trying "Restore":

~ $ autoscan-network

Looking at the Application Manager, I have the following other "sniffer" related programs and libraries installed. Maybe there's a clue there.

ettercap
ettercap-common
libuiw
libzlibrary
netdiscover
vncviewer

And, external to the application manager, I installed nmap and kismet, both of which use libpcap and libc6

I hope there is some information there that will help you get Autoscan going.

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

I just installed it and got in running from the UI. The Wizard came up. With no changes I got [FAILED] Connecting (127.0.0.1) (Connection refused). I Changed the "local network" to my network name and it went to a search screen where it hung....

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

Thanks for your feedback but can you be a bit more specific?

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

go to xterm, become root, enter "autoscan-network-daemon"
exit root mode and enter "autoscan-network"

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

Strange.

As I have said, Autoscan seems to be working OK just from the Icon. When I tried I got this repeated over and over:

[A] [ERROR] [create_tcp_server](Reseau.c:621): Address already in use

Also, regarding How long did you wait? It takes over a minute to scan my home network with 3 computers on it, and about 5 minutes at work where there are 50 on my local subnet.

By the way, it doesn't seem to be able to get past the switch connecting my subnet to the main network - or I'm not waiting long enough....

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

hmm, something is not right in my installation I guess.

~ $ rootsh

/home/user # autoscan-network-daemon
-sh: autoscan-network-daemon not found

any idea?

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

I downloaded the installer to an SD card, and then did "Install from File" in Application Manager.

Re: Autoscan on OS2008
 

Yeah, same here with "Cannot find module" warnings, but it still works.

and
"[A] [ERROR] [create_tcp_server](Reseau.c:621): Address already in use
Stopping AutoScan Network Agent 1.32 (http://autoscan-network.com)" was what I've seen when I tried to start the daemon twice. But it works for me when I start it only once.

btw. autoscan-network-daemon can be found in /usr/sbin/

try to kill the daemon with "killall autoscan-network-daemon" as root. I did it with ssh because of the annoying warnings in xterm. Then retry with "/usr/sbin/autoscan-network-daemon"
