Request for help with SIFT #158

Closed hkoncke closed 7 years ago

hkoncke commented 7 years ago

Hi, hello everybody and sorry for my basic and elemental request for help. I used to work on Unix/AIX, but that was more than 20 years ago, so my *nix knowledge is a little bit rusty by now. I'm trying to install the SIFT tool and then to learn to use it. I set up an Ubuntu 16.02 machine and I downloaded the sift-cli-linux files. Now there's nothing I can do with them. I guess the sift-cli-linux is a package that should be opened with some tool, but I don't know what should I do. Can someone shed some light on me about this? Thanks a lot in advance.

It's an binary that you need to execute using the command line using a terminal. Please see https://github.com/sans-dfir/sift-cli for the installation instructions and the usage of the command.
