Hi Andrei, the most immediate suggestion i can give you is to tap either tcpdump or ethereal on the eth0 and see which traffic the libpcap library is effectively returning; also, try playing with the 'promisc' directive (which defaults to true) - as my understanding is that you are sniffing traffic passing through the interface. Unless you are using some more complex pmacct configuration (ie. multiple SQL plugins that might be writing to the same table), the above suggestions should return some meaningful answer. Otherwise, post your configuration here.
Let me know. Cheers, Paolo On Fri, Apr 13, 2007 at 10:46:52PM +0300, Andrei Neagoe wrote: > I've just setup pmacct on a box that has a vmware server on it.
