Updated on September 2nd 2009

Introduction This document details how to install Immunity CANVAS 6.XX on Windows XP computers.Those familiar with installing programs on Unix or Linux architectures are already aware of dependencies. CANVAS on Windows is no exception, several free programs are required to be installed beforeCANVAS will work. Once installed the user interface will function exactly like it does in Windows. Disclaimer Immunity recommends for customers who are tied to the Windows XP platform install avirtualization solution and create an Ubuntu virtual machine. In this way CANVAS can run in its native environment while within a Windows machine and enterprise policy can still be observed by the end user.Because CANVAS does not ship a kernel driver for Windows it is constrained by the limitations of the Windows networking stack. Specifically this limits the number of half open TCP connections so actionswhich require portscanning will take significantly longer. Attacks that impersonate an SMB server will also not function due to restrictions for impersonating this service on Windows.
