Usage
The scapy-unroot daemon
The daemon to allow usage of scapy without root permissions requires root
itself. You can start it with the following command:
sudo scapy-unroot scapy

The provided argument scapy should be a permission group, users who are
allowed to use scapy without root permissions should be in.
By default, all files related to scapy_unroot are managed in the directory
/var/run/scapy-unroot. You can change that directory using the -r /
--run-dir argument:
sudo scapy-unroot --run-dir /tmp scapy

The UNIX domain socket to communicate with the daemon will be created under the
name server-socket in that directory.
Network interfaces that users of scapy_unroot should not be able to send over
or sniff on can be blacklisted using the -b / --interface-blacklist
argument. Multiple interfaces can be provided:
sudo scapy-unroot scapy --interface-blacklist wlan0 eth0 lo

To run the daemon in background, use the -d / --daemonize parameter:
sudo scapy-unroot -d scapy

To get more information on the arguments of the scapy-unroot daemon, run
sudo scapy-unroot -h

All arguments described above can be combined.
Configuring scapy to communicate with the daemon
Before sending or sniffing with scapy, just do
from scapy_unroot import configure_sockets

configure_sockets()

You can provide a different server address by the server_addr argument. The
default is /var/run/scapy_unroot/server-socket.
You can also configure the timeout for waiting for a reply from the server using
the connection_timeout argument.
