Shaark is an open-source packet capture and analysis tool designed for security researchers and network administrators. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Shaark on Void Linux.
Before we start, make sure your system satisfies the following requirements:
The first step is to install the dependencies required by Shaark. To do this, open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S libpcap-dev libgeoip-dev libssl-dev
This will install the libpcap, libgeoip, and libssl development libraries.
Next, clone the Shaark repository from GitHub using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/MarceauKa/shaark.git
This will create a new directory called shaark
, which contains the Shaark source code.
Enter the following commands to build Shaark:
cd shaark
make
This will compile the Shaark source code and create the shaark
binary.
To install Shaark system-wide, run the following command:
sudo make install
This will copy the shaark
binary to /usr/local/bin
.
To verify that Shaark is installed correctly, open a terminal and run the following command:
shaark --help
This will display a help message indicating that Shaark is installed and ready to use.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Shaark on Void Linux. You can now use this powerful packet capture and analysis tool to analyze network traffic and detect security threats.
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!
