Does Autoscan software also work with N800?

For some reason i couldnt check screenshots of that page.

Re: AutoScan
 

Yes. I have it installed and running on my N800.

-T.

Re: AutoScan
 

Strange. I installed it, and when I run it it says "loading" for a bit and then disappears. Any idea how I can troubleshoot this ? (bit new to the N800...)

Thanks for any assistance :)

Re: AutoScan
 

as far as i have seen you have to have an active connection to a wireless network and be able to get to the internet for fingerprinting.

Re: AutoScan
 

Both done already Brendan, wi-fi rattling away quite happily.

This device only has a couple of basic apps installed and has the latest OS update applied, it's pretty much as it arrived 7 days ago - so I'd doubt it's some incompatibility I've self-induced with something else.

edit: I'm never even seeing any user-interface or anything like that for it - is this something I should be running from a command-line perhaps ? Doesn't look like it from the autoscan.fr site, but perhaps...

Any other thoughts ?

Thanks

Re: AutoScan
 

Not a command-line app. It has a GUI. I have it running on my n800, haven't really used it, just fired it up to make sure it's running.

Try running it from a xterm and look for any debugging messages printed there.

Re: AutoScan
 

OK, will give it another go tonight. Thanks for the advice :)

Re: AutoScan
 

I been using this app for months now and is grate is another strip down version of nessus.

Re: AutoScan
 

Err. OK that's odd.

This is the fifth time I've installed it - and it just works. Odd that it didn't the previous four times, each time has been direct from autoscan.fr.

It's not like I can do it differently each time, but whatever - it's working now.

Thanks all :)

Re: AutoScan
 

OK, I spoke too soon. In the "Add network" wizard, I pick my private network (192.168.x.x) and then on "Where is located the network" I have to pick localhost as I don't have a remote agent. It tries to connect to 127.0.0.1 and times out after 5 seconds. Any ideas?

Running it from a terminal, there were some messages scrolling by about connection being refused, so I presume that the agent isn't starting. Is the agent a seperate package or something?

Sorry to be asking here, but even a babelfish translation of the dox at autoscan.fr didn't really help me..

Thanks

Re: AutoScan
 

Just a question, but did you reboot your N800 after you installed Autoscan?
Mine didn't work either, then I found some docuemtation somewhere that said to reboot after the install.
Now it mostly works.
Cool software.
I am going to go look for the source and try to fix
1: Color problems using Themes.
2: Lockup when trying to open a saved network.
3: Two cancel buttons when trying to load a saved network

Re: AutoScan
 

Yeah I did reboot it when I installed it once before, but something must have changed for it to work now.

I'm still getting the problem of it failing to contact its scanning agent - if anyone knows the name of that agent (or why it's failing), that might help me in diagnosis.

Thanks again.

Re: AutoScan
 

Any screenshots?

Re: AutoScan
 

Ok, this gets odder and odder. It now works and the only thing i have done since is install a heap of other apps on. maYbe i got lucky with some library perhaps...

Re: AutoScan
 

this works on the n810 with the updated diablo 2008 os

Re: AutoScan
