Installing conpot on debian Jessie (8) for the lazy:

Prerequisites:
Update your box and sync your clock:

# apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
# apt-get install ntpdate libmysqlclient-dev gcc libpython27-dev

Then do a time update :

# ntpdate -v time.nist.gov

Now install pip :

# wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
# python get-pip.py

Then you should get something like this :

root@debian-dev:~# pip -V
pip 9.0.1 from /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)

nice. Now on to
Conpot itself:

# pip install conpot

But if you run it it fails with this error:

[...] from bacpypes import LocalDeviceObjectImportError: cannot import name LocalDeviceObject

Awww snap !
That’s because conpot is a bit outdated and looks for a class in the bacpypes package where it used to be several versions ago, but the author moved it. So all your lazy ass has to do is change

IN FILE: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/conpot/protocols/bacnet/bacnet_server.py
Look for: from bacpypes.app import LocalDeviceObject
Change to: from bacpypes.service.device import LocalDeviceObject

And what do you know: magic happens :

# conpot --help
[...]  Version 0.5.1  MushMush Foundation [...]

Now run it test if it actually listens :

# conpot --template default

And Surely enough, it does :

[...]

Right, so you told python to do it’s thing, and surely it now listens :

root@debian-dev:~# netstat -antlup | grep -i list

Mind you, this box be much new, very basic.

Here’s how it looks like from a browser on port 80:

Now get configuring. This guide doesn't cover that since it's plainly written here : https://mushorg.github.io/conpot/usage/index.html

Installing conpot on Centos 7 easy for the lazy:

Prerequisites:
First of all, I am talking about a fresh install, so read between the lines if that’s not the case, mkay mkay. Make sure your system is updated and your clock is set properly:

# yum -y update
# yum -y install ntpdate

then ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/[Your_Region]/Your_Capital_City /etc/localtime
For example

# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Bucharest /etc/localtime

Then do a time update :

# ntpdate -v time.nist.gov

Now install pip :

# curl -O https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
# python get-pip.py 

Then you should get something like this :

[root@centos7development ~]# pip -V
pip 9.0.1 from /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages (python 2.7)

Dependencies:

# yum install mariadb-devel gcc python-devel

nice. Now on to
Conpot itself:

# pip install conpot

But if you run it it fails with this error:

[...] from bacpypes import LocalDeviceObjectImportError: cannot import name LocalDeviceObject

Being Centos and all that you need to setup some firewall permissions, but for the sake of argument, and since this is not a "how-to firewalld yourself", I just disabled it :

how to install glastopf on centos 6 in a couple of minutes, no hassle

Edited on 04'th of March 2013 to reflect latest glastopf changes.
 
If you're wondering WTF is glastopf, well -> that's the bugger !
Some words before we begin:
Installing glastopf on Centos 6.3 32bit/64bit can be a pain especially if you break your already in place python setup. That's because glastopf needs 2.7 :) cute :>
First python version 2.7 needs to be installed without breaking the default 2.6 install (this would mess up yum and other tools that depend on python 2.6) *you want to stay away from that.
Ok, so how you set your OS up is up to you. you can get iso's, burn em and install in a physical machine, or virtualise using virtualbox/openvz/xen/vmware whatever you wish, the point is, you must have a fresh install(preferably) and a login prompt. 
Also, this was adapted from this ubuntu guide:the marvelous ubuntu guide. Once you're at a login prompt or at the shell, read on: 


All commands issued by root. If you must use sudo then do. I encourage it.
Setup the 'mess'(build) dir if you prefer but you can install python from anywhere.
Prepare the environment:
Prequisites from rpms

# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
# yum install zlib-devel bzip2-devel openssl-devel ncurses-devel sqlite-devel readline-devel tk-devel php-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel atlas atlas-devel gcc-gfortran g++ git php php-devel wget screen mysql mysql-server mysql-devel libevent-headers

- accept all deps. 
- You need some of those things to have a not-only-barely-functional python interpreter. 
- from this point on it is recommended to perform all your work in screen. if you're not familiar with screen here's a good tutorial: the mighty screen. Basically it's a virtual terminal that keeps whatever stuff you do in it running even if your ssh session fails due to leet-isp-skills or alien crashes severing your fiber channels. Then when you reconnect you can re-attach to it and voila. it's as if you never left.

# mkdir -p /usr/local/build/

Python installation: cd to previously created dir, then:

# wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.3/Python-2.7.3.tar.bz2
# tar xjf Python-2.7.3.tar.bz2
# cd Python-2.7.3
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
# make && make altinstall

(the red word is very important)

Prequisites for pip (if you don't like distribute feel free to use your favourite):

# cd /usr/local/build/ 
# curl -O http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py
# python2.7 distribute_setup.py

Pip installation:

# cd /usr/local/build/  
# curl -O https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
# python2.7 get-pip.py

Proceed to prequisites for glastopf:

• pymongo:

# pip-2.7 install --upgrade pymongo

• numpy and other deps:

# pip-2.7 install numpy
# pip-2.7 install chardet sqlalchemy lxml beautifulsoup pyOpenSSL requests MySQL-python
# pip-2.7 install scipy (be warned: pip installs software from alpha centauri so expect *some* delays. also compiling can take a while.)

• antlr:

# cd /usr/local/build/
# wget http://www.antlr3.org/download/antlr-3.1.3.tar.gz
# tar xzf antlr-3.1.3.tar.gz
# cd antlr-3.1.3/runtime/Python
# python2.7 setup.py install

• SKLearn:

# cd /usr/local/build/
# git clone git://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn.git
# cd scikit-learn
# python2.7 setup.py install

• evnet:

# cd /usr/local/build/
# git clone git://github.com/rep/evnet.git
# cd evnet
# python2.7 setup.py install

Install and configure the php sandbox

# cd /usr/local/build/
# git clone git://github.com/glastopf/BFR.git
# cd BFR
# phpize
# ./configure --enable-bfr
# make && make install

take a look at your architecture and add this line to php.ini accordingly:

zend_extension = /usr/lib/php/modules/bfr.so

or

zend_extension = /usr/lib64/php/modules/bfr.so

Proceed with glastopf 

# cd /usr/local/build
# git clone https://github.com/glastopf/glastopf.git
# cd glastopf
# python2.7 setup.py install

if for some weird reason this doesnt work retry last command - i had issues due to some weird network problems or mirror issues. 

Create a directory that will serve as your glastopf honeypot root. anywhere you want. For example /usr/local:

# mkdir /usr/local/honeypot 
# cd /usr/local/honeypot

AND THEN : 

# glastopf-runner.py

but wait. it fails. that's because in the glastopf.cfg file that it sets up in this directory the group id doesn't exist. it may on debiant/ubuntu but not on centos. so change it to nobody and adjust other settings and you're set.

# screen glastopf-runner.py

It should look like something similar to this with the last line being Glastopf started and privileges dropped:

:D enjoy
