Nmap-7.95 (with a symbolic link nc pointing to ncat in /usr/bin
; used in tests)
To run the tests, the following option should be enabled in the kernel configuration:
General setup ---> [*] POSIX Message Queues [POSIX_MQUEUE]
Install lsof by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make
The tests should be run as the root
user. They require that the POSIX message queues are enabled in the
kernel, and that Nmap-7.95 be installed with a symbolic link
/usr/bin/nc
pointing to ncat.
make check
Now, as the root
user:
make install
--disable-static
: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
