Hi all,
I've just installed honeyd-1.0 on RH 8 (not the latest I know, but all I had on hand). I added the current libevent, libdnet and rrdtool-1.0.49 as required, libpcap and python were already there. Everything appears to have gone fine, but on starting honeyd I get the following repeating in the logs:
honeyd: rrdtool_fork: execv(/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/): Permission denied
honeyd[825]: rrdtool returning errors - restarting.
honeyd[825]: Respawing rrdtool too quickly

I have not been able to find any information to help fix this :-( I must have missed something - any pointers?

My honeyd startup is:
#/bin/shell
/usr/local/bin/honeyd -d \
-f /etc/honeyd.conf \
-u 501 \
-g 501 \
-l /var/log/honeyd \
-p /usr/local/share/honeyd/nmap.prints \
-x /usr/local/share/honeyd/xprobe2.conf \
-a /usr/local/share/honeyd/nmap.assoc \
-0 /usr/local/share/honeyd/pf.os \
-i eth0 \
--rrdtool-path=/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/ \
--webserver-port=9876 \
--webserver-root=/usr/local/share/honeyd/webserver/htdocs/ \
--fix-webserver-permissions

cutting it down to this makes no difference to the errors:
#/bin/shell
/usr/local/bin/honeyd -d \
-f /etc/honeyd.conf \
--rrdtool-path=/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49/

the web page just returns this:
Error response

Error code 404.

Message: File not found.

Error code explanation: 404 = Nothing matches the given URI.


honeyd-1.0 runs fine with --disable-webserver, but it would be nice to have it all running. (I have also tried chmod 777 and chown root:501 the rrdtool and webroot directories to try and eliminate rights errors, but no luck)

TIA
Mike
