I’ve had to disable the tcpreplay and cabernet trac sites for a few days due to an incompatibility with Trac and Python 2.5 which was crashing Apache and taking all my sites down. Probably will be a few days before I get a chance to hack up a fix.
You can still download tcpreplay from SF.net.
Yep, 3.2.5 is ready to go. Fixes compiling issues under Solaris with the Sun Studio compiler as well as numerous Linux distributions which no longer ship static libraries. Download it here.
Ticket #281 was a real pain in the ass. It seemed like everyone but me could reproduce it. Continue reading
Well this weekend was full of football and since my 49ers are out of the running (and likely for next year as well) I’ve regressed into a Packer fan. Hard not to with Brett Favre running the show. Anyways, while watching the Pack kill the Seagulls err… Seahawks, and the other games over the weekend, I made some serious progress on merging tcprewrite and fragroute. Continue reading
So tcpreplay 3.2.3 was released a while ago… Fixes the serious problem with compiling on Linux. More importantly though, I’ve started to use Cabernet, my wine management system myself to manage my 350+ bottle collection. Continue reading
Not a big release, but it does fix a bug preventing Debian from picking up the latest code and also takes advantage of a bug fix introduced in OS X Leopard. Basically, under OS X prior to 10.5, you could not forge the source MAC address AND send a full sized ethernet frame. There was a bug which limited you to 1486 instead of 1500 bytes.
UPDATE: Crap, major bug in 3.2.2 breaks Linux and all other platforms which don’t have BPF devices. 3.2.3 will be available soon.
I’m happy to announce the immediate release of tcpreplay 3.2.1. This release fixes a number of end-user reported performance, stability and data corruption issues and all users are strongly suggested to upgrade. Continue reading
I’m officially killing flowreplay as a future feature of tcpreplay. After giving more thought to this problem and where protocols and applications are going, it’s become clear to me that the goals of flowreplay are unobtainable.

Just a little update on Tcpreplay & Cabernet. Tcpreplay is still currently mostly on hold as I’m spending most of my free coding time working on Cabernet, my wine management application. Cabernet is definitely getting close to a beta. Continue reading
Recently I was asked how to take a pcap and replay it through a firewall doing NAT. This is actually quite complicated since you’ve got to keep in your head about 4 different variables as well as a complicated test bed configuration. Continue reading
