Hi.
For doing something simple, there's nothing to undestand.
You have to use the standard calls (pcap_open(), pcap_setfilter(),
pcap_findalldevs_ex(), ...).
When you're going to open a remote adapter (i..e the source is in the form
'rpcap://host/adaptername'), WinPcap will send the commands to the remote
daemon for you.
Please note that standard calls are not able to send username and password
to the remote machine. So, you have to launch the daemon with the '-n' flag,
which will allcept 'NULL' authentication.
Cheers,
fulvio

Subject: RE: [WinPcap-users] Working with remote capturing interface
Hi Fulvio
I am developing a network analyzer project for college and I want to
incorporate remote capture. I had a look at the docs on the winpcap site and
I see that there is a rpcapd daemon that can be run on the remote machine. I
dont understand the client side and how I can send commands to the daemon
etc. How do the adapter strings operate and how can I issue commands to the
daemon. Any example client side code would be appreciated.
Thanks,
