Description

dnsspoof  forges  replies  to  arbitrary  DNS  address  /  pointer  queries on the LAN. This is useful in
       bypassing hostname-based access controls, or in implementing a variety of man-in-the-middle attacks.

Files

/usr/share/dsniff/dnsspoof.hosts
              Sample hosts file.

Name

       dnsspoof - forge replies to DNS address / pointer queries

Options

-iinterface
              Specify the interface to use.

       -fhostsfile
              Specify the pathname of a file in  hosts(5)  format.  Only  one  hostname  allowed  per  line  (no
              aliases), although hostnames may contain wildcards (such as *.doubleclick.net).

       expression
              Specify a tcpdump(8) filter expression to select traffic to sniff.

       If no hostsfile is specified, replies will be forged for all address queries on the LAN with an answer of
       the local machine's IP address.
