Correct. Windows, unlike the UN*Xes on which libpcap works, does not include an in-kernel capture mechanism that *pcap can use, so WinPcap includes, and requires, a driver that provides that in-kernel capture mechanism. (Windows includes NDIS, but it doesn't include a way to read, from user mode, packets provided by NDIS.) _______________________________________________ Winpcap-users mailing list [email protected] https://www.winpcap.org/mailman/listinfo/winpcap-users
