Although I think Cygwin is a terrifically useful tool, I'm still not used to not having a package manager, and am having trouble setting it up. Another question on stack overflow seems to indicate that I need WinPcap. I downloaded the file and installed as described by camino's answer. However, ./configure still returning the error. Is some modification of Reaver itself required? If not, what should I do? Thanks! cygwin share|improve this question asked Apr 15 '15 at 12:13 ConfUser 61 Note: I already have libsqlite3-devel installed, which is Reaver's other dependency. –ConfUser Apr 15 '15 at 12:27 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote libpcap is not available on cygwin, for a obvious reason: libpcap needs to work at system network interface level, while cygwin is only in user space. The old link you reported was in reality using a cygwin cross-compiler to build a mingw program. share|improve this answer answered Jul 12 '15 at 21:13 matzeri 59935 add a comment| You must log in to answer this question.

ERROR_GEN_FAILURE Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Download and unpack the WinPcap developer's pack from http://www.winpcap.org/devel.htm. It contains a set of examples that compile under cygwin too. This will save you a lot of time in setting up a ready-to-go environment.

Special Instructions for Windows Need Help? Downloads Download Releases for Users Latest stable release: tcpreplay-4.1.1.tar.gz PGP signature Release notes Version 4.1.0 announcement Latest beta release: tcpreplay-4.1.1-beta-3.tar.gz PGP signature Version 4.1.1 Beta 3 announcement Old Win32 release Note that Windows is not supported by the maintainer Complete list of past releases Download Source for Developers Compiling source from GitHub has more requirements than compiling a release. Specifically you must have AutoGen installed. If you plan to contribute you must have AutoGen version 5.16.2, otherwise your pull requests may be rejected. If you want to help develop Tcpreplay visit our Developer Wiki. Download via GitHub git clone https://github.com/appneta/tcpreplay Or if you plan to contribute someday simply fork the repo and submit a pull request when you are ready to share your changes with us Or download the latest master tarball Note that master is always production ready, but not necessarily the latest stable release. See GitHub network to see the state of master Installation Simple directions for Unix users You will need to compile the source code, but first you must ensure that you have compiling tools and prerequisite software installed. For example, on a base Ubuntu or Debian system you may need to do the following: sudo apt-get install build-essential libpcap-dev Next extract tarball, change to root directory, then do: ./configure make sudo make install Optionally you can run the tests to ensure that your installation is fully functional: sudo make test Installation Video Build netmap feature This feature will detect netmap capable network drivers on Linux and BSD systems. If detected, the network driver is bypassed for the execution duration of tcpreplay and tcpreplay-edit, and network buffers will be written to directly. This will allow you to achieve full line rates on commodity network adapters, similar to rates achieved by commercial network traffic generators. Note that bypassing the network driver will disrupt other applications connected through the test interface. For example, you may see interruptio
