Re: [netsniff-ng] Using a time-based interval in netsniff-ng crashes at the end of the first interval

[Kevin Branch]

Daniel, I did a fresh git pull of the latest netsniff-ng 0.5.8-rc2 minutes ago and built it on these platforms: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS with stock 64bit Ubuntu kernel CentOS 6.4 with non-stock 3.10.7-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64 kernel Using time-based intervals is working in both cases. Thanks!

When I specify a time-based interval, netsniff-ng records for the full interval but then crashes with a "Poll failed!" error before starting a 2nd pcap file.  Like this: root@server:~# netsniff-ng --in eth1 --out dump -s --interval 30s Running! Hang up with ^C! Poll failed! root@server:~# ll dump total 152064 drwxr-xr-x  2 root root      4096 Aug 16 10:27 ./ drwx------ 57 root root     12288 Aug 16 10:26 ../ -rw-r--r--  1 root root 155690405 Aug 16 10:27 dump-1376663235.pcap This does not occur with a traffic volume interval like "--interval 1MiB" I googled about for "netsniff-ng" and "Poll failed!" but it appears this may have cropped up recently, since nothing turned up in my digging. Thanks for reporting! I've just pushed a fix upstream to the Git repository. Could you test it on your side?
