Here goes another release candidate for the netsniff-ng toolkit. This -rc mainly contains changes to the mausezahn utility, implementing additional configuration options. Also, the mausezahn configuration is moved to /etc/netsniff-ng/mausezahn.conf (from /etc/mausezahn/mz.conf) as of this release, so please make sure to move your existing configs accordingly.
As always the -rc also contains some small fixes all over the place, for details see the changelog below. --- netsniff-ng 0.5.9-rc3 has been released to the public (http://netsniff-ng.org/).

From Jon Schipp. 2) Allow mausezahn to bind to an IP address using the -l command line option, from Jon Schipp. 3) Install mausezahn configuration file to /etc/netsniff-ng/mausezahn.conf instead of /etc/mausezahn/mz.conf. From Jon Schipp. 3) Add the --no-hwtimestamp/-N command line option to netsniff-ng, allowing to disable hardware time stamping (as it might lead to skewed timestamps in recorded PCAPs, see https://github.com/netsniff-ng/netsniff-ng/issues/129).
