I have been reading and reading about how to compile and install cowpatty, but i haven't made much progress. I've downloaded cowpatty 4.2, but thats about as far as i have gotten.

I ran the command below to get build-essential, it said done but now i'm confused again. How do i use build-essential to make cowpatty?
sudo aptitude install build-essential

Dear people, how nice and delightful of you to be auditing your own wifi-networks against attacks from the outside


Just out of curiosity i've just successfully compiled cowpatty 4.3 on Ubuntu 8.10.
It also needed :

sudo apt-get install libdigest-hmac-perl

This didn't quite help, but thank you for the effort and comments.

I had successfully compiled Cowpatty 4.3 on Ubuntu 9.10 (Linux Mint 7).
I did the following:

sudo -s
apt-get install libssl-dev
apt-get install libpcap0.8-dev
apt-get install libdigest-hmac-perl

make (from inside cowpatty directory unpacked in the home folder)

aptitude install build-essential
cowpatty

I confirmed that cowpatty was working by accessing the help and running a test sample.
Hope this helps others.

good job Skylancer :
only one thing left before insert cowpatty in console:

sudo cp cowpatty /usr/bin

now you are ready to use the program only writing

cowpatty

bye

no work, making all theses steps:
<cowpatty: command not found>

pls help

[teh_pwnzr]

apt-get install libssl-dev
apt-get install libpcap0.8-dev
then try make.

This worked for me on Ubuntu 9.10 with CowPatty 4.6

Also, to execute, do "./cowpatty" after making it.

[tekal]

apt-get install libssl-dev
apt-get install libpcap0.8-dev
then try make.

Worked for me!

A hint:
Worked for me together with "sudo" and do the "make" inside the folder you unpacked cowpatty.
