Need help with tcpreplay? Read this!Posted by Synfinatic on April 9, 2012 at 11:02 am in tcpreplay.I’ve noticed a certain pattern come up more and more recently and so I’d just like to make a public statement about asking for help with using tcpreplay: Occasionally people are testing some kind of top secret device with tcpreplay and can’t tell me how it works or what it does or share their pcap file (because it has some kind of exploit or something like that I guess), but expect me to help them figure out why it can’t “see” the traffic tcpreplay sends. That’s a lot like asking your car mechanic to fix your car, but you won’t let them look at it because you’ve modified the engine to run on tap water and don’t want the … Tags: help, NDA, support, tcpreplay, top secret
Why Tcpreplay went GPLPosted by Synfinatic on August 22, 2010 at 9:14 am in tcpreplay.I’ve been thinking about this for a while and honestly pretty made up my mind months ago, but I finally go enough determination to edit almost all the files in the trunk source tree and change the license from the 3 clause BSD to GPLv3. There’s actually a number of reasons for the change and I wanted to share the ones that were most important to me. I don’t expect everyone to like the decision, but probably most won’t care since it doesn’t really impact them. But sometimes people get all bent out of shape when a project that has been around as long as Tcpreplay (10 years? Damn, where did the time go?) changes its license so I wanted to give my side of it. The change doesn’t mean I don’t like the BSD license anymore, just that I now feel the GPL is more appropriate for the Tcpreplay Suite. Tags: bsd, gpl, license, tcpreplay

Rejected!Posted by Synfinatic on March 18, 2009 at 11:14 am in /dev/random, tcpreplay.As I expected, Tcpreplay was not accepted for the Google Summer of Code. Most likely because compared to many of the other mentoring organization applicants, Tcpreplay is not able to accept many students- hence the overhead is too high. Of course, if you are a student (or anyone else for that matter) and are interested in working on Tcpreplay and learn about networking, I’m always willing to help people get up to speed on the code and contribute.

GSoC 2009Posted by Synfinatic on March 12, 2009 at 10:49 pm in tcpreplay.Well I decided to throw my hat into the ring for being a mentoring organization for the 2009 Google Summer of Code for Tcpreplay. Obviously Tcpreplay will be one of the smallest “organizations” to submit an application so I can’t say that I have high hopes of being accepted, but I figured it was worth a try.

Tcpreast! – whoops!Posted by Synfinatic on February 26, 2009 at 5:00 pm in tcpreplay.Due to a slight miscommunication, the audio recording equipment I was using for the Tcprecast! Video Podcast is no longer in my possession. Until I’m able to source a new USB microphone (supporting OS X) and pop filter, there won’t be any more podcasts. :( Tags: tcprecast, tcpreplay
Plug Computing == Cabernet Solution?Posted by Synfinatic on February 25, 2009 at 3:51 pm in Cabernet, Cool.So I was just reading about Marvell’s Plug Computing solution. Basically a $100 (goal is to get the price point down to $50) Linux based computer in the form factor of a wall wart. First let me say this is really damn cool. Cheap, small form factor, low power and doesn’t try to do too much (no video output for example). Tags: Cabernet, ideas
Tcprecast! Episode #1Posted by Synfinatic on January 26, 2009 at 6:54 pm in tcpreplay.I’ve decided to get on the bus with all the cool kids and start my own video podcast called Tcprecast! I’m hoping to make Tcprecast! a how-to smorgasbord of all things Tcpreplay and then some. Tags: podcast, tcprecast, tcpreplay
Tcpreplay 4.0 devel has started…Posted by Synfinatic on January 21, 2009 at 12:03 pm in tcpreplay.OK, I have to admit- priorities have really changed for the next major Tcpreplay release. You can thank (or I guess depending on your perspective, blame) Abdel Younes who has stepped up and offered to create a GUI for Tcpreplay. Honestly, if it wasn’t for Abdel I’m not really sure I’d even be working on the next major release. Tags: api, gui, tcpreplay
