tsk_comparedir
TSK_COMPAREDIR(1) General Commands Manual TSK_COMPAREDIR(1)
NAME
tsk_comparedir - compare the contents of a directory with the contents of an image or local device.
SYNOPSIS
tsk_comparedir [-vV] [-n start_inum ][ -i imgtype ][ -b dev_sector_size ][-o sector_offset ] image comparison_directory
DESCRIPTION
tsk_comparedir compares the contents of image to the contents of comparison_directory. This can be useful for detecting rootkits and when
testing. Rootkits can be detected by comparing the contents of a local directory and a local raw device. The rootkits typically don't
hide data when it is read directly from the raw device.
The arguments are as follows:
-o sector_offset
Sector offset for a partition in the image or device to compare with.
-n start_inum
Starting inum for a directory in the image to start the comparison at.
-v verbose output to stderr
-V Print version
-i imgtype
The format of the image file (use '-i list' for supported types) If not given, autodetection methods are used.
-b dev_sector_size
The size (in bytes) of the device sectors If not given, autodetection methods are used.
EXAMPLES
To compare the directories in image.dd to those in directory:
# tsk_comparedir ./image.dd ./directory
