    Returning player...Old SEQ user

    First of all, is SEQ functioning still? Can it run in a VM in windows on the same machine? I have an old laptop I could use if necessary, but I hope to run it on the same computer.

    What is the best linux OS to use these days? I used to use Redhat, but I have been out of the game for so long, I have no idea where to start, linux-wise.

    I hope to get this awesome program up and running, so any help is appreciated.

    You can use in a VM on the same OS. You just need to make sure that the VM can see the network traffic. Usually this involves configuring the virtual network interface for the VM to allow promiscuous mode. RedHat is the variation mentioned in the instructions, but you can use any linux that you can get the necessary packages on. ShowEQ was still working as of the July patch. I didn't see anyone complaining about it failing recently so I assume there's no August patch yet that has broken it again.

    Personally I last used CentOS which is based off of Redhat Enterprise. I havent played in about a year but I assume it still works. I think the SVN is updated, but from what I remember reading, the tarball needed additional patches found in the forums.

    VMware will work, as was said it needs promiscuous mode enabled.
    Filters for ShowEQ can now be found here. filters-5xx-06-20-05.tar.gz

    ShowEQ file section is here. https://sourceforge.net/project/show...roup_id=10131#

    The tar is updated along with SVN. Generally on a patch day we have a diff released with the fixes to get SVN or previous tar working. Then a few days later both SVN and tar get updated.

    I've used backtrack and RHEL recently and both work without problems.

    I run seq in vmware using ubuntu 10 or 11. Works fine in either for me. I have not done any other os besides ubuntu lately. It was just too stupidly easy to set up and worked.

    Been trying to get it up and running in Ubuntu 12.04.2 in a virtualbox and get an error on ./configure

    GNU supported compiler version
    Checking whether the C++ compiler works... no
    configure error

    Do I need a different version of GCC? I believe this version is 6

    Check you have g++ or c++ installed.

    Switched the VM to CentOS 6.4 and got it up and running the day before the patch broke it...

    Thanks for the help!
