Location / Home / Projects
If you want to stay up to date with Rekall development, keep an eye on this page.
 FTP Server
Rekall releases can be downloaded from SourceForge. Other information about Rekall is also available on the SourceForce project server.
Packages for Red Hat and Mandrake are available on our ftp site, as well as the whole source code. We are working for providing you packages for other distributions as well.
Distribution and installation notes
Rekall is currently being distributed as source only. A cleaner install and packaging is being worked on, but for those people that really enjoy hacking around, this will get you started. There are RPMs available for Red Hat for the xBase library, however.
Since Rekall uses KDE-DB, that means you will either need to modify the makefile to remove any database that you don't have installed or don't want to install. Currently KDE-DB looks for MySQL, PostgreSQL and Informix. MySQL will typically be found automatically, but PostgreSQL is expected to be in /usr/include/pgsql, you will need to modify the postgres path manually in hte makefile if you have it somewhere else.
You will want to install in the following sequence. All source code uses the standard ./configure && make && make install.
- xbase-1.8.1-7.src.rpm or xbase-1.8.1-7.i386.rpm
xbase-devel-1.8.1-7.i386.rpm
- Then if desired or needed:
MySQL
PostgreSQL
Informix
- Then install:
xbsql-0.1.tgz
- Then install:
Kdedb-0.1.tar.gz
Remember, you may need to modify the makefile before compiling.
Now install Rekall itself using either the srpm or the rpm:
rekall-0.3.1.i386.rpm or rekall-0.3.1.src.rpm
Finally there are examples in the Orders.tgz file that you can look at and use. If you have any questions or problems please use the Sourceforge support forums associated with this project.
