install dnsperf 2.0 on Ubuntu13.04 64bit

# tail -1 /etc/lsb-release ;uname -ri DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 13.04" 3.8.0-27-generic x86_64

download dnsperf from http://www.nominum.com/support/measurement-tools/

download BIND source from www.isc.org

install required packages to build dnsperf.

# apt-get install libbind-dev build-essential dnsutils bind9 libpcap-dev tshark libxml2-dev libssl-dev libcap-dev tshark

to build dnsperf, you need hmacsha.h

# locate hmacsha.h /usr/include/isc/hmacsha.h

Some distributions do not include hmacsha.h when installing bind via its package manager.

If you have not found hmacsha.h, download BIND source code from www.isc.org and use hmacsh.h in BIND source code.

In case of Ubuntu13.04, you will not get hmacsha.h form BIND source code if you install bind9 via apt-get.

# cp bind-9.9.3-P2/lib/isc/include/isc/hmacsha.h /usr/include/isc/

build dnsperf

error..

# tar xzvf dnsperf-src-2.0.0.0-1.tar.gz # sh configure # make gcc -g -O2 -I/usr/include -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" -DHAVE_LIBNSL=1 -DHAVE_PTHREAD=1 -pthread -c dnsperf.c In file included from dnsperf.c:56:0: /usr/include/isc/file.h:28:22: fatal error: isc/stat.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.

nn, quick and dirty solution on this is getting stat.h from BIND source and copying it to /usr/include/isc directory.

# cp bind-9.9.3-P2/lib/isc/unix/include/isc/stat.h /usr/include/isc

try again.

nn, another error.

okay, again, quick and dirty solution.
