2021-07-17knock: updated to 0.8adam1-1/+2
0.8 - Multiple fixes - IPv6 support
2017-07-160.7:adam1-1/+5
- Document the 'target' configuration directive. - Merging OS-specific networking code to reduce LOCs and the sea of #ifdefs. - Added 50ms timeout to pcap_open_live() to reduce CPU usage on network-heavy hosts. Pcap recommends we not use zero. 0.6: - Cleanup: Don't null-check before free - Cleanup: Consolidate flag-check logic - Accept single-knock sequences - Introduce a 'target' configuration directive, enabling knockd to react to connect attempts to a target host. Useful in cases where knockd is on a router and you want to send a target a wakeup packet.

* Re-open log file on SIGHUP. * Install knockd man page into section 8 instead of section 1.
2010-11-30knockd is a port-knock server. It listens to all traffic on an ethernet (or PPP)adam1-0/+6
interface, looking for special "knock" sequences of port-hits. A client makes these port-hits by sending a TCP (or UDP) packet to a port on the server. This port need not be open - since knockd listens at the link-layer level, it sees all traffic even if it's destined for a closed port. When the server detects a specific sequence of port-hits, it runs a command defined in its configuration file. This can be used to open up holes in a firewall for quick access.
