How to: Running SBOX on x86_64 Debian Linux Server

How to: Running sbox on x86_64 Debian Linux Server

'' I saw that no one of the developers have builded a 64bit version of sbox. Here is the solution to running it also on Your 64bit Debian Linux Server (also working for Ubuntu)

If You runing the file like this:



root@debian:~# /usr/bin/sbox.x86
-bash: /usr/bin/sbox.x86: No such file or directory


it doesn't work, because the ia32-libs are missing, You can see with command file what the sbox binary is:



root@debian:~# file /usr/bin/sbox.x86
/usr/bin/sbox.x86: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped


so we install the missing 32 libs:



root@debian:~# aptitude install ia32-libs


Now have fun with sbox on 64bit System



root@debian:~# /usr/bin/sbox.x86

Wellcome to sBox (for x86)
Version: 0.0.4-6 (06/01/2010 #1)

Of course sbox is running on 32bit native modus, not on 64bit. ''
