Dear ethereal developers, I consider ethereal a very helpful tool for administering networks. Today I tried to install it on a windows 2000 server via a remote terminal services client. Starting ethereal I got the following error message:
GdK-EROR **; Palettized display (256-colour) mode not supported on Windows; Aborting After pressing "ok" the following message appears: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! Program: ...Pathname... Abnormal termination That means that this technical tool requires more than 256 colours, and therefore can not be started via a terminal service client which has 256 colours by design (Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 273725). Could that be changed??? It would be very helpful for remote administration. Regards Werner Strunz
