I am using RH 7.2 as well, and had no luck with RPMs. I was able to get the 
latest beta compiled and running using these commands:

Installing dsniff 2.4b1:

1. wget http://www.monkey.org/~dugsong/dsniff/beta/dsniff-2.4b1.tar.gz
2. tar zxvf dsniff-2.4b1.tar.gz
3. cd dsniff-2.4
4. wget http://www.groar.org/patch/dsniff-2.4-sshow.c.diff
5. patch -p1 < dsniff-2.4-sshow.c.diff
6. ./configure && make && checkinstall

Check out http://www.groar.org/patch/english.shtml#sec-dsniff for more 
information on what you have to change in "sshow.c" to get dsniff to compile. 
Note: I use checkinstall to generate RPMs from the "make install" command, in 
case you are wondering what checkinstall is/haven't used it.

Good luck!
