Original Post:
--------------
        My operating system is OSF/1 vs 3.0.

        As I assume everybody is probably hyped about the up and coming
public release of "S.A.T.A.N." (System Administrators Tool for Analyzing
Networks), I am trying to do my best to make sure that I can detect
such hackers in my area of the internet world.

        There is one perl script program named "courtney" that uses "tcpdump"
which uses a library "libpcap.a" to detect any S.A.T.A.N. attempts. I am
trying to get "libpcap" to compile properly.

        The programs I need are "flex" and "bison". Are these common programs
that should be on CDROM associated with the OSF/1 OS CD?

        I am missing a file "tokdefs.h" associated with the library code. Is this
file a common file? Or does somebody have a copy of this file who could EMail it
to me?

Answer:
-------
"flex" and "bison" are the utilities that are executed when configuring the code
for compiling for the "gcc" compiler.

"lex" and "yacc" are the utilities that are executed when configuring the code
for compiling for the "cc" compiler.

Since this is the case I was satified with just "lex" and "yacc".

"tokdefs.h" gets created when "configure" gets executed for the library. Thank
you "Herve DEMARTHE (CEA France) <demarthe_at_alpha.cad.cea.fr>" for a copy of the
file anyway.

"flex" and "bison" are GNU Utilities found at many sites.

Here is a forwarded message as to the location of the perl program "courtney":

COURTNEY UPDATE

After several responses to our request for feedback, we've made some
performance, and (hopefully) portability improvements in the COURTNEY
program. The new version (V1.2) is available now via the following
methods:

        * Via the CIAC Web server at http://ciac.llnl.gov

        * On the CIAC anonymous ftp server at ciac.llnl.gov
          in the /pub/ciac/sectools/unix directory

CIAC would like to thank Shawn Instenes of LLNL for his words of Perl wisdom
that helped us to improve this product.

If you have further suggestions for improvements, or questions about
Courtney, please send e-mail to ciac_at_llnl.gov.
