Operating Systems Linux How do i Block sniffers over LAN? Post 302861527 by jim mcnamara on Wednesday 9th of October 2013 06:02:03 AM

You can't do that remotely. It has to be done on the linux box. Packet sniffing means that somebody with elevated privilege on a (linux) box set a NIC into promiscuous mode. You have to physically get on the linux box and stop whatever is going on there. Then remove privilege for all the users on the box & change root password. This will "block" it.

So, you have problems. Elevated privilege on a linux box and other security issues. As well as to why packet sniffing was set up.

I would simply speak with the admin on the box to find out what is going on. The admin may be running something for security. e.g., snort

glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)					       GLUT						  glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)

NAME
glutButtonBoxFunc - sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window. SYNTAX
#include <GLUT/glut.h> void glutButtonBoxFunc(void (*func)(int button, int state)); ARGUMENTS
func The new button box callback function. DESCRIPTION
glutButtonBoxFunc sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window. The dial & button box button callback for a window is called when the window has dial & button box input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates dial & button box button presses. The button parameter will be the button number (starting at one). The number of available dial & button box buttons can be determined with glutDeviceGet(GLUT_NUM_BUTTON_BOX_BUTTONS). The state is either GLUT_UP or GLUT_DOWN indicating whether the callback was due to a release or press respectively. Registering a dial & button box button callback when a dial & button box device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this case, no dial & button box button callbacks will be generated. Passing NULL to glutButtonBoxFunc disables the generation of dial & button box button callbacks. When a new window is created, no dial & button box button callback is initially registered. SEE ALSO
