Running the Honeypot

--------------------

docker run -p 80:80 --name "mystrutspot_docker" -d struts_honeypot



Accessing the logs

------------------

Run 'docker ps' to validate the docker name: "mystrutspot_docker"

Then use test-struts2.py like below:



Usage: 



./test-struts2.py 



e.g: ./test-struts2.py http://localhost/
