Installation instructions ------------------------- $ ./configure $ make $ make install Quickstart ---------- $ darkstat -i eth0 Slightly slower start --------------------- $ man darkstat Packaging --------- The install target respects DESTDIR. If you are packaging darkstat or installing into a chroot, you can: $ make install DESTDIR=/chroot/whatever Portability ----------- I, the darkstat maintainer, mostly develop darkstat on Debian GNU/Linux, but mostly run darkstat on FreeBSD. darkstat usually builds out-of-the-box on FreeBSD, although you should probably install it from ports. In the past, darkstat has also been reported to work on: - Solaris (with Sun C 5.8, and libpcap installed) - Fedora Core (with libpcap-devel installed) - OpenBSD - NetBSD - Mac OS X - AIX - Ubuntu (you need build-essential, zlib1g-dev, libpcap-dev) - Mandrake - OpenSUSE Sadly, darkstat doesn't run on GNU/Hurd 0.3 because the BPF there doesn't support non-blocking operation (FIONBIO).
