I merged some databases together with the “merge” function in the SATAN Data Management, but when I exited SATAN, they weren saved. What gives?
The database merging only works in memory. Currently there is no way to save this to disk (until the next version of SATAN.) I get “bin/tcp_scan: socket: Too many open files” in the window from which I start Satan. The machine’s open file table is getting exhausted. Tcp_scan backs off and succeeds after a few attempts. You’ll need to build a bigger kernel or run less processes. I’m trying to get SATAN running on my Linux box. Linux is far from a standard Un*x, and SATAN has a tendency to push the OS and perl to the limits. We’ve tried to do as much as possible to make it work, but there are probably various problems we haven’t found because we don’t have a Linux box to play with. (Cross?) posting to comp.security.unix and comp.os.linux.* could probably give you more help than we could.
