Hi Arturo,

you could read the wikipedia article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promiscuous_mode

Basically, when you start tcpdump or another tool for sniffing network traffic you turn the network interface [eth0] into promiscuous mode.

Cheers

Hello to all.

I am finding some trouble with the following message at boot: eth0 promiscuous mode enable. eth0 promiscuous mode enable
eth0 promiscuous mode enble


I do not know wath this means: I can acces the
web but do not install any extra software.
Yum are reporting error : canot acces freshrpms.

 Wath is a "promiscuous mode enable". My
computer is victim of hackers?

Thanks for any advice.
