E-Maculation

Anyone got sheep_net installed on Linux 4.4.0-71-generic?

I followed the detailed instructions on Ricky Zhangs's gitHub page on

https://github.com/cebix/macemu/tree/ma ... /NetDriver

and the sheep_net.ko was built correctly and installed OK in the /dev directory.

I couldn't get TCP working on Basilisk II.
But even more strange: After a reboot, the driver is gone (not listed in /dev anymore) and I found the following strange message applying dmesg:

[ 402.306478] sheep_net: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel
[ 482.211371] Netfilter messages via NETLINK v0.30.
[ 489.084078] device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
[ 492.121513] device eth0 left promiscuous mode

[ 556.312109] device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
[ 744.588226] device eth0 left promiscuous mode


Would be great if someone could confirm that sheep_net works on recent Linux builds.

Best & happy hacking,

OS: ubuntu 16.04 LTS
running Linux: 4.4.0-71-generic
on an old Core2Duo Intel CPU

(solved!) I found a version supporting Kernel 4.2.0
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(4, 2, 00)

Recompiled using sources from:

https://github.com/cebix/macemu/tree/ma ... /NetDriver

Problems with slirp but success using eth0.
DHCP did crash the system.

Great! - Now I have a KnubblMac with real net access on my Linux

Please , is that the same link as your first post ? cause i can't access it...
Looking to build it for a recent Raspbian .

slirp never works in 64 bit machine. The sheep_net module never needs slirp. It needs your real physical wifi/ethernet interface.
