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 AUTHOR
