Intrusion detection tools that use the libpcap C/ C++ library [1] for network traffic capture (such as Snort [2] and Tcpdump [1]) can output packet capture information to a file for later reference. The format of this capture file is known as pcap. By capturing packet data to a file, an investigator can return later to study the history of an intrusion attempt – or to turn up other important clues about clandestine activity on the network.
Of course, the traffic history data stored in a pcap file is much too vast to study by just viewing the file manually. Security experts use specialized filtering tools to search through the file for pertinent information. One way to look for clues in a pcap file is to use the Wireshark protocol analysis tool [3] and its accompanying command-line utility tshark.
Wireshark is included by default on many Linux distros, and if not, it is available through the leading package repositories. You can also download Wireshark through the project website [4]. In this article, I describe how to use Wireshark and tshark to search a pcap file for information on network activity. I will assume you already have a pcap file ready for investigation. For more on how to capture a pcap file with Tcp-dump, see my article "Intruder Detection with Tcpdump," which is available online at the ADMIN magazine website [5].
tshark at the Command Line
The tshark utility is a simple tool included with the Wireshark package that lets you filter the contents of a pcap file from the command line. To get a view of the most significant activity, I use the following command:
$ tshark ‑nr dumpfile1.gz ‑qz "io,phs" > details.txt
The ‑n switch disables network object name resolution, ‑r indicates that packet data is to be read from the input file, in this case dumpfile1.gz. The ‑z allows for statistics to display after it finishes reading the capture file, the ‑q flag specifies that only the statistics are printed, and the > redirection
sends the output to the file called details.txt. See Figure 1 for the output of this information. To view a list of help commands used with tshark, type:
$ tshark ‑h
And for a list of ‑z arguments type:
$ tshark ‑z help
Figure 1
Say you would like to know whether a particular IP address appeared in a packet dump and what port it was connecting on. The following command line checks the dump file for the IP address 188.8.131.52:
$ tshark ‑V ‑nr dumpfile.gz ip.src == 18.104.22.168 | grep "Source port" | awk {'print $3'} | sort ‑n | uniq 80
The resulting output on the line following the command shows that the packet dump file recorded IP address 184.108.40.206 having connections on port 80.
If you were given a packet dump file and asked to find possible IRC traffic on your network, how would you do it? First, you would need to know what port numbers were associated with IRC traffic, and that could be accomplished with Google or by issuing the following command:
$ grep irc /usr/share/nmap/nmap‑services | grep tcp
Figure 2 shows the results of the preceding command.
Figure 2
Now I can search the packet dump and look for evidence of IRC traffic using the following commands:
$ tshark ‑nr dumpfile1.gz 'ip.addr==172.16.134.191 and tcp.port >= 6667 and tcp.port <= 6670 and irc' | awk {'print $3,$4,$5,$6'} | sort ‑n | uniq ‑c
Figure 1: tshark statistics output.
Figure 2: Locating IRC port numbers with grep.
Figure 3: IRC connections found in the packet dump.
Figure 4: The Wireshark startup window.
The breakdown of this command is shown in Table 1, and the output is in Figure 3.
Figure 3
In the GUI
The Wireshark GUI application is easier on the eyes, and it provides some options that aren't available at the command line. You can start Wireshark from the Application menu or from the terminal. To load a capture file, select Open in the startup window (Figure 4) or select File | Open from the menubar. Once you have a packet capture file loaded, you can start searching packet dumps within the Wireshark interface.
Figure 4
The Filter box below the Wireshark toolbar lets you enter criteria for the search. For instance, to search for all the Canonical Name records within the capture file, type in the following filter: dns.resp.type == CNAME (see Figure 5). After you enter a filter, remember to clear the filter text to see the full file before starting a new search.
Figure 5
Table 1: Parts of a tshark Command
Option Description
'ip.addr==172.16.134.191 This is my network
and tcp.port >= 6667 Start of the port range
and tcp.port <= 6670 End of the port range
and irc' Searches for IRC traffic only
awk {'print $3,$4,$5,$6'} Prints the third through sixth patterns from each matching line
sort ‑n Sorts according to string numerical value
uniq ‑c Only prints the number of matches that are unique
Digging deeper, if I want to know how long a client resolver cached the IP address associated with the name cookex.amp.gapx.yahoodns.net (Figure 6), I would enter the following filter:
dns.resp.name == "cookex.amp.gapx. yahoodns.net"
Figure 6
The filter ip.addr == 10.37.32.97 gives information on all communications that involve 10.37.32.97 in the packet dump. If needed, use && to isolate to a specific protocol. The filter ip.dst == 10.37.32.97 or ip.src == 10.37.32.97 looks for a source or destination IP address.
How could I find the password used over Telnet between two IP addresses? For example, if a user at 172.21.12.5 is using Telnet to access a device at 10. 37. 140.160, I can enter:
ip.dst == 10.37.140.160 && ip.src == 172.21.12.5 && telnet.data contains "Password"
The preceding command will list the connections that meet the search requirement, and you can right-click on the packet and click Follow TCP Stream to view the password. (See Figures 7 and 8.)
Figure 7
Figure 8
Note: A much easier way to get the password on the network, if you were sniffing the traffic instead of reading from a capture file, would be to use ettercap, as follows:
$ ettercap ‑Tzq //23
To discover whether someone was viewing a suspicious web page, I can perform a filter search to find out what picture the person at IP address 10.225.5.107 was viewing at Yahoo (126.96.36.199) with the following filter:
ip.dst == 10.225.5.107 && ip.src == 18.104.22.168 && (image‑jfif || image‑gif)
Figure 9
Figure 9 shows the results. If you then right-click on a line in the output and select Follow TCP Stream for the results shown in Figure 10.
The second line in the Follow TCP Stream output specifies that wynn‑ rovepolitico.jpg is the image this person was viewing on the site.
Figure 10
Wireshark can do more than just watch the wires in real time. If you save a snapshot of network activity in a capture file in the pcap format, you can use Wireshark to search through the file to look for clues about nefarious activity.
In this article, I described how to search for information in a capture file using Wireshark and the tshark command-line tool.

Former G.O.O.D. Music artist Kid Cudi recently discussed his upcoming Need for Speed flick and what fans can expect from his character in the long-awaited Entourage: The Movie.
While he did not reveal too many details, he did confirm buzz about his on-screen Entourage: The Movie role.
You'll next be seen in the upcoming Entourage movie as Ari's assistant. Is there anything you learned on the Need for Speed set that you'll take with you into this new project? Be prepared and be ready. A movie like this, a big-budget action film, is kind of like a couple of takes and you gotta be ready to go. I was like one of those guys anyway, flexing those muscles. The same thing will apply for Entourage. I'll be prepared and ready. Ari Gold don't play. (Entertainment Weekly)
Reports last week revealed the Entourage movie is slated to premiere at theaters in June 2015.
With production under way, Warner Bros. has set a release date for its "Entourage" movie of June 12, 2015. Based on the HBO show, the film includes the original cast of Kevin Connolly, Adrian Grenier, Kevin Dillon, Jerry Ferrara and Jeremy Piven. Billy Bob Thornton and Haley Joel Osment also star as a father and son while returning cast members also include Perrey Reeves, Emmanuelle Chriqui and Rhys Coiro. (Variety)
Buzz about Cudder taking on the role of main character Ari Gold's assistant surfaced online a few weeks back.
EXCLUSIVE: Warner Bros is just getting underway with the movie version of the hit HBO series Entourage. You know from the series that Ari Gold's long-suffering assistant Lloyd has moved up to rep. So Ari has found a new assistant, and that role will be played by Scott Mescudi, who is better known in hip-hop circles as Kid Cudi. Mescudi is about to open opposite Aaron Paul in the DreamWorks vidgame adaptation Need For Speed, and he just wrapped the films James White and Two Night Stand. (Deadline)
Recently, executive producer Mark Wahlberg confirmed the movie would hit the big screen.
Mark Wahlberg, returning to "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" 21 years after his first appearance on the program with his former rap group, Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, confirmed last night that the highly anticipated "Entourage" movie is officially moving forward. "We're going to shoot a couple of days this month and come back in April and finish the movie and hopefully it will be ready for the fall," he added. (Salon)

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Space invader's insights illuminating
This odd novel, told from the perspective of an alien who has just arrived on Earth, offers some insight into how bewildering our lives on this planet really are.
British writer Matt Haig has previously written critically acclaimed novels for young readers, such as Shadow Forest and Runaway Troll (the former winning the Nestl© Children's Book Prize in 2007). His 2011 vampire novel, The Radleys, concerns a family with a dark secret, whereas The Humans is about a family that doesn't know it has a secret.
It is a sad, funny, silly and, at times, biting satire. It calls to mind everything from TV's Third Rock from the Sun to Robert Heinlein's classic novel Stranger in a Strange Land.
As the novel opens, an unknown mathematician named Andrew Martin has stumbled onto a solution for the Reimann problem of prime numbers, setting the stage for boundless possibilities of its application.
Unfortunately, an advanced interstellar alien race called the Vonnadorians -- an homage to the late Kurt Vonnegut and his Tralfamadorians? -- doesn't think Earthlings are ready for such developments as free energy, teleportation and matter transmutation.
They send one of their own to take over Martin's mind and body, to destroy all evidence of his breakthrough and eliminate all others who might have knowledge of his discovery.
Of course, it would have helped for the alien, who goes unnamed, to have known something about humans; like that we wear clothing and houses are not capable of movement on their own. Oh, and books have to be read, not eaten, although one example of human reading matter called Cosmopolitan is not a truly useful field guide to the species.
The alien is most aghast we have really, really awful food. A vegetable stir-fry apparently smells to him "like Bazadean body waste."
The Humans is a new take on the standard sci-fi premise of an alien trying to make sense of terrestrial society. Haig's wrinkle is the alien is being watched by his (its?) superiors who insist his mission of eliminating all of Martin's family and colleagues must be completed.
The alien argues unsuccessfully against his orders because he has begun falling in love with Martin's wife, who is completely perplexed as to why her distant, arrogant husband is now acting so differently. Martin's son has been suffering because his father used to be so distant but now has taken an interest in his teenage angst.
The alien speaks directly to the reader, describing humans in a clinical and occasionally astute manner. He notes humans are of mid-range intelligence and are best described as "diploid, eukaryotic primates." Cows, on the other hand, are multipurpose ungulates, which humans "treat as a one-stop shop for food, liquid refreshment, fertilizer and designer footwear."
Humans are also fascinated with television news, which the alien calls, "The War and Money Show."
Coming from a purely mathematical and logical society, Haig's alien is overcome by the human emotions he experiences in his acquired body. Are humans worth saving, after all?
As the alien grows more sympathetic to the cause of humanity, he is faced with a grave choice: either complete his mission or stay on Earth in his host body, losing all his regenerative and matter-manipulative powers. To enjoy the poetry of Emily Dickinson (of which he has become enamoured) or stop the human race from expanding outward into space and making a real mess of things?
Most readers will be able to pick one or the other.
Chris Rutkowski is a Winnipeg science writer who has published books about aliens and UFOs.

FRISCO — Good riddance, daylight savings time. What a joke. Why so many artifacts from the days when we were a rural, agrarian society? Is it a longing for a simpler past? An unwillingness to change?

Immediate Crisis Response - Overview
UNDP works to help ensure that the humanitarian response to the emergency also contributes to longer-term development objectives and more resilient communities, laying the best possible ground work for development work beyond the immediate emergency; and helping people move from humanitarian dependency to self-sufficiency as soon as possible.UNDP works to help ensure that the humanitarian response to the emergency also contributes to longer-term development objectives and more resilient communities, laying the best possible ground work for development work beyond the immediate emergency; and helping people move from humanitarian dependency to self-sufficiency as soon as possible.
UNDP ensures public services are functioning as early as possible; affected people are given emergency employment, an income, and trained in construction techniques and other skills to start the process of rebuilding infrastructure and removing rubble; and small businesses are given start up grants, financing and other help to keep communities viable and functioning.
UNDP advisors also work with and train local public servants to make sure that the buildings, infrastructure and communities being reconstructed meet a minimal code of disaster resistance, and that where possible, the underlying triggers of a conflict or disaster are addressed.
UNDP's immediate crisis response package:
- Emergency employment, start-up grants and loans to recapitalize local businesses
- Community infrastructure rehabilitation, to improve access to basic services as well as revitalize the local economy
- Debris management, to ease access and rebuild infrastructure
- Local governance support, strengthening local government capacity for relief and recovery planning, coordination and implementation, improving the capacity for local risk management

Electric vehicle communications are being tested with BMW's ActiveE electric vehicle in a simulated smart home environment in Mountain View, Calif. Some EVs could have Green Phy technology by the end of next year.
A couple of years from now when you come home and plug your electric vehicle (EV) into a charger, there's going to be a technology that sends the signal from the car to the charger and likely to a two-way smart meter provided by the electric utility. And chances are it's all going to be done on a backbone that many consider uncool and low-tech: your home's powerline.
That's right. Your home's high-voltage electrical lines may be the ideal network for energy efficiency services provided by a smart grid. And this is especially true if you live in a multiple dwelling unit (MDU) like a high-rise apartment building.
A couple of reasons why: First, your EV will need to send a signal to the charger and possibly the smart meter, because your car will instantly be the biggest energy draw in your home, and just a few EVs charging at once could overload a local transformer on the power grid that services several houses. Smart-charging our EVs will be essential, and the car, charger and smart meter (or other device) will all have to be in sync.
How does that involve powerline? So far, seven major auto manufacturers—GM, Ford, Audi, BMW, Porsche, Daimler and Volkswagen have thrown their support behind a communications standard called HomePlug Green Phy. It's based on HomePlug AV that sends audio and video signals around the house over the home's powerline, only at a much lower bit rate. Green Phy will be able to work with HomePlug AV, and be used to transmit smart grid service information from local utilities over powerline (and bridged with wireless ZigBee, which will be used in many smart meters).
HomePlug AV has also been adopted by DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), the standard being used in many audio/video components like TVs for streaming media from computers and the such.
Are you getting where all this is going? It may well all go over the home's powerline, courtesy of HomePlug AV and Green Phy.
Green Phy could even be used for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) applications, in which the grid can draw on power stored in multiple EV batteries.
Green Phy is also being looked at to get energy information from meters in high-rise MDUs to the dwellings, which are often located too far from the meters, and the wireless signals are impeded with too much concrete for wireless technologies like ZigBee.
Green Phy has power saving features that will coordinate the Green Phy devices on the network so some can turn on only when they need to send or receive—and not miss any data. In addition, it operates at the HomePlug band to avoid noise commonly found in the home at lower frequency bands.
Green Phy chipmaker Qualcomm Atheros is presently in beta on its QCA7000 Green Phy chips, which should be available in May. Jim Zyren, director of marketing for Qualcomm Atheros, envisions Green Phy-based light switches and smart outlets that can read energy usage and report that to other devices. He says as the technology moves forward, it will be cost-competitive with technologies like ZigBee—as well as bridged to ZigBee-communicating devices.

Troop riders on plane
Have one of your teammates get in the driver's seat. Have them hold L2 so that plane gets very low to the ground. Have yourself and whoever else around pile onto the plane. You can stand just about anywhere on either plane, but try to stay away from the sides. Crouch to keep from falling off. Make sure to have at least one rider with a rocket launcher. The pilot should never leave Hover mode and not make any sudden movements.
Planes may be able to exit troop boundaries, but the riders cannot -- stay in the boundaries. The plane will sink a little with people on it. Just go up if you get too low. You can then carry your troops to the enemy base. This is also useful in Capture The Flag because you are not allowed to fly with the flag.

"I'm a first time purchaser. I ordered two yellow replacement toner cartridges for my OKI C3530 MFP. I was impressed with how fast I received my replacement cartridges (next day) but when I installed the 1st cartridge the printer showed a criticle error message and would not work. I put my old cartridge back in and the message cleared but I still could not print as my original cartridge was empty. I installed the second cartridge and the same thing happened. When I called my printer's service company, they informed that the error message indicated that the microchip in the replacement cartridges weren't working. When I spoke with your customer service, they said the same thing. They sent me a return authorization tag for the cartridges right away for which I am grateful. I do not have UPS service at my office so I have to take the box to a store to return it. Which means I am spending additional time and money to do so. Needless to say I am not impressed with the product. Unfortunately the timely delivery and customer service responce is negated by faulty product. Hopefully, the replacement cartridges work.

Tai-tai issue
Most Popular
It is truly shameful that Hong Kongers have to endure the horrendously arbitrary decisions made on the minimum salary for domestic helpers.
The bulk of residents cannot afford this luxury, so this subject has no direct consequence. The out-of-touch legislator Jennifer Chow Kit-bing has made this an issue for her and her tai-tai friends. She could have as easily attacked the cost of registering a vehicle, or electricity charges, which would have an impact on the common person.
Hong Kongers should treat this as the petty and embarrassing political decision it is. We should make sure such issues do not define the political landscape and advocates such as Ms Chow get booted from office.

"As always, Blay was the anchor who kept him from being swept away."
"When he turned back around, his characteristic smart-ass smile was back in place. "Your wish is my command, prince of mine."
Don't call me that.
"How about good ol'-fashioned 'master'?" When John just glared over his shoulder, Quinn shrugged. "Fine. I'll go with fathead then. But that's your damage, I gave you options."
"One thing, though," Qhuinn murmured.
The voice that came out his throat was unlike anything he'd ever heard from himself before. "If any guy breaks your heart or treats you like shit, I will bust him apart with my bare hands and leave his broken, bloody body for the sun."
Blay's laughter rumbled around the tiled walls. "Of course you will--"
"I'm dead fucking serious."
Blay's blue eyes shot over his shoulder.
"If there are any who dare to hurt you," Qhuinn growled in the Old Language, "I shall see them staked afore me and shall leave their bodies in ruin."
John Matthew's ahstrux nohtrum sat lifting weights with John and Blaylock. The three friends were sad about the loss of two of the brothers, but happy at the fact Lash who had somehow ended up with the Lessening Society, was dead, hopefully permanently this time. After lifting weights the boys went into the showers to...well shower. It was awkward due to Blay being in love with Qhuinn despite them getting past the issue somewhat. John finished first leaving on ahead to the mansion followed by Blay shortly leaving Qhuinn alone. Once he was done he started for the mansion, his mind wandering towards thoughts about his best friend. He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice the scent of baby powder as the lesser came out of nowhere stabbing him in his chest, running off at the sound of another coming.
Blay walked back into the gym having forgotten something only to see Qhuinn on the ground bleeding. He booked it over to his best friend taking him in his arms pulling at his phone to call for help.
"Forget it. I'm not going to live," Qhuinn said weakly smiling. "Tell John that I'm sorry and he's a good friend. And Blay. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you what I'm about to tell you." Qhuinn placed his hand gently on Blay's face. "You're not just my best friend. Blay, I love you. I love you," he told him tears in his eyes as the two friends looked at each other with love.
Blay leaned down kissing his best friend, and love of his life, gently but deeply on the lips as tears flowed down his own face and the life left Qhuinn. Once Qhuinn's body was cold, Blay let out a roar at the loss.
Fritz watched from far crying to himself before leaving to inform the others.
Dear Yata you are...
Qhuinn ahstrux nohtrum of John Matthew
"Yeah, and then I'll get fired. Which means V'll Donald trump my a** with a dagger. You're welcome."
You are a member of the glymera and the cousin of Lash, though you are shunned by the glymera due to your defect of one eye green, the other blue. You are also best friends with Blaylock and John. You killed your cousin Lash after he went too far in teasing John. While under normal circumstances you would be put to death, you were instead made ahstrux nohtrum to John as a way out of the death sentence.
Due to being a guardian of John you follow him everywhere and block him from too much danger and danger from him. You may send me a PM saying Block: [User] to prevent another from using their ability that night.
You are aligned with the Black Dagger Brotherhood. You win when all threats are eliminated.

@m0ckingbird20; @Setra;
What is your own reasoning for voting me?
"Oh, I don't mean 'straight' in a heterophobic way. I just mean, ya know, dumb and stupid."
I wanted to lynch Setra first but since more people want you dead... there is not much that I can do. I mean I already tried voting Setra and I was counter voted for no actual reasons so...
@m0ckingbird20; I was balancing out the votes. I didn't want to go down with one vote and you never showed up after you voted me. There. That's why I voted for you. Happy? : )
As for voting for @FrostyGaga; ...sober!Finny as of right now doesn't have a reason not to be trusted. No one has counter claimed her yet so, why not go with her plan?
