After around 8 months of development, HeX 2.0, codename “Bonobo“, is released! HeX is a liveCD developed by the rawpacket team that is based on FreeBSD 7.0 and designed to be used for network security monitoring. There are a lot of new features and a lot of bugfixes that went into this release, but before […]
I just finished up the FreeBSD port for Chris and Scholar’s flowtag. Flowtag is a neat tool for tagging network streams for collaboration and analysis. I’ve submitted the port to FreeBSD’s mailing list, so I’m hoping for upstream soon. In the meantime, you can download the port files on my miscellaneous page. In other news, […]
I’ve been digging into the world of exploit writing lately, working on Defcon‘s previous year’s CTF qualification programs, I ran into Atlas’ presentation on “Kiddie to Hacker in 5 sleepless nights”, which talks about some of his mindset when he first got into binary exploitation. Atlas has written a tool call disass to aid in […]
In my home network, I have a passive tap sitting between my cable modem and my router, instead of spending tons of money, I made my own. They’re surprisingly simple to make, and also extremely simple to use. Let’s start with the wiring, at a local electronics store, I purchased 4 RJ-45 wiring plugs, I […]

Don’t get me wrong, I love fluxbox, I just enjoy experimenting with other window managers and decided I’d finally try the daunting wmii (turns out, not very daunting at all). So, here’s a quick rundown on getting wmii working on Hex 1.0.3BETA (this will work on pretty much any other Hex 1.* release as well). […]
I found out there is internet here, so I’m finally able to post some code changes I was working on while on the airplane. Firstly, download the files here. The static page for nsm-console is here. I finally got around to releasing the next version of the nsm-console. This version incorporates a large amount of […]
Trying to run svn on Hex 1.0.* you get the following error: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object “libaprutil-1.so.2″ not found, required by “svn” As geek00l pointed out, this can be fixed by issuing the following command: cd /usr/ports/devel/apr-svn/ && make install clean Assuming you have a ports tree downloaded into hex, but what if you don’t have […]
The first addon packages are now available for Hex (version 1.0.1 or 1.0.2)! I have successfully created a FreeBSD port and a Hex package for the honeysnap project. You can find the files here (navi.eight7.org) until they are put into an official hex repository. If you only want the port, download the honeysnap-1.0.6.11.tar.gz file (note […]
Yep, that’s right, I’m going to be helping out with the Hex LiveCD project. I will hopefully be doing some development for some of the NSM tools and fixing bugs in the CD. In case you don’t know what Hex is, let me give you a little synopsis (from the Trac): “HeX LiveCD is a […]
