Yes, that'd work - but it's not running in an operating system different from Windows, it's running on W2K. W2K happens to be running on a simulated PC inside VMWare on Windows, but that's different from running WinPcap and a WinPcap application directly on Linux - for one thing, it can only capture on the simulated network devices, but I don't know whether that'd let you get traffic from the real network interface. == This is the WinPcap users list.

But this demonstrates that, at least for wmware developers, they did a pretty nice job. for one thing, it can only capture on the simulated network devices, but I don't know whether that'd let you get traffic from the real network interface. I was able to capture all the traffic on the net, on the 'bridged' adapter (if I remember well). fulvio == This is the WinPcap users list.

Actually, I'd consider it a software miracle. That's what it would be. Wine handles *userland* Windows code; as far as I know, it makes little, if any, attempt to handle *kernel* code such as the NPF drivers. BTW, why do you need WinPcap on Linux? To run closed-source or Windows-only-and-hard-to-port WinPcap-based applications? There's already native support for libpcap on that platform. ...which, for the ambitious Wine hacker, could be the basis of a Wine wpcap.dll, to handle WinPcap APIs that are also in libpcap, or that could be implemented atop libpcap APIs, by forwarding them to the native libpcap. == This is the WinPcap users list.
