## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To add two domain names, `domain1.foo` and `domain2.bar`, for the IP addres `10.0.0.1`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`./ghost 10.0.0.1 domain1.foo domain2.bar`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The added line will look like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
10.0.0.1 domain1.foo domain2.bar # Added by ghost on 26-10-2023
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|

||
|
|
## Notes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The tool is safe to use with the [SUID bit](https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/suid-sgid-sticky-bit), which is very handy for not entering your password when adding hostnames to your `/etc/hosts` file every time.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
While this is very handy for CTFs or platforms like Hack The Box, this is also a big security issue, e.g. if you are on a multi-user machine. **Use with caution!**
