In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Fenris, an open-source network scanner, on NetBSD.
Before you can install Fenris, you need to have NetBSD installed on your system. You can download the latest NetBSD distribution from the official website: https://www.netbsd.org/releases/
To install Fenris, you should first install the required dependencies. Fenris requires the following packages to be installed:
You can install these packages using the pkgin
package manager, which is included with NetBSD. To install Git and GCC, run the following command:
sudo pkgin install git gcc
After installing the required dependencies, you can download the latest version of Fenris from the official GitHub repository:
git clone https://github.com/revenz/fenris.git
This will download the Fenris source code to your system.
To compile Fenris, navigate to the Fenris directory and run the following command:
cd fenris
make
This will compile the Fenris source code and generate the fenris
binary.
To test if Fenris is working correctly, run the following command:
sudo ./fenris -i <interface>
Replace <interface>
with the name of the network interface that you want to scan. This command will start a network scan and display the results on the terminal.
That's it! Now you have successfully installed Fenris on your NetBSD system. Fenris is a powerful network scanner, and you can use it to scan your network for potential security vulnerabilities.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
