I think it depends on the path you take, some find the comma meaningful and look for the phrase 'uses obsolete PF-INET', others such as the Google toolbar ignore it... Anyway, I run libpcap-0.6.2-16 and libpcap-0.7.x without issues. Though that's a RedHat 0.6.2 so there could be patches pulled from later versions into it... vs. a native libpcap 0.6.2 Now searching for libpcap PF_INET SOCK_PACKET site:tcpdump.org finds a small # of interesting hits, including: On Linux, if you want to sniff packets, you would use PF_PACKET/SOCK_RAW or PF_PACKET/SOCK_DGRAM sockets (or, in 2.0-kernel systems, PF_INET/SOCK_PACKET, but that mechanism isn't as nice). See the "packet(7)" man page. And this one, http://www.tcpdump.org/lists/workers/2002/02/msg00017.html (which seems to indicate that the magic release # is 0.7.2) AFAIK, it's griping at you, but the offending facility hasn't been ripped out of the 2.4 kernels, so it should actually work... -----Burton -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Nicolas C.

Googling for 'uses obsolete PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET' finds a bunch of > hits (800+) Yes, but googling for : ntop "uses obsolete PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET" finds only 9 hits ;) But at all events, thank you for the answer and sorry if i bothered the list. I'll try a newer version instead of using the one of Debian. _______________________________________________ Ntop mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listgateway.unipi.it/mailman/listinfo/ntop _______________________________________________ Ntop mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listgateway.unipi.it/mailman/listinfo/ntop
