Hello, I face the same error.
I have tried to run the latest Windump (3.8 alpha) with rpcap also. (For sure I have run the rpcapd with -n flag). But still failed to find the adapter. I have tried both syntax: Windump -i rpcap://127.0.0.1/\"adaptername" and Windump -i rpcap://"IPaddress"/\"adaptername" And the error is: windump: Error opening adapter: The system cannot find the path specified. I wonder what is the correct syntax for using it with rpacap? Thanks in advance. ~3ve!yn -----Original Message----- From: Fulvio Risso [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2003 4:50 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WinPcap-users] Syntax for adaptername using windump (ethereal?!?) and rpcap > -----Original Message----- > From: stefmit [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: mercoled� 10 settembre 2003 19.55 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [WinPcap-users] Syntax for adaptername using windump > (ethereal?!?) and rpcap > > > On Wednesday 10 September 2003 01:09 am, Fulvio Risso wrote: > > Hi. > > > On Tuesday 09 September 2003 08:13 am, Fulvio Risso wrote: > > > <snip> > > > > > > > I have the WinDump working on my machine: > > > > > > ================================================================== > > > ========= > > > > > > >= ============================== > > > > C:\cvsroot\analyzer\bin>windump -i > > > > rpcap://127.0.0.1/\Device\NPF_{C8736017-F3C3-4373-94AC-9A34B7DAD998} > > > > > > > > windump: listening on > > > > rpcap://127.0.0.1/\Device\NPF_{C8736017-F3C3-4373-94AC-9A34B7DAD998} > > > > > > > > 14:55:07.458092 arp who-has 192.168.1.1 tell truciolo > > > > .... > > > > > > ================================================================== > > > ========= > > > > > > >= ============================== > > > > > > > > Which version are you using? > > > > Are you using the latest alpha? > > > > > > <snip> > > > > > > On both ends: winpcap latest alpha 3.01, and windump 3.6.2 on the > > > machine I am > > > trying to do the monitoring from.

Very odd ... > > Thx, > Stef This is my last try. Do you launch the rpcapd daemon with the "-n" switch? WinDump does not manages password, so you have to launch the daemon in such a way that supports NULL authentication (that means "everyone can capture traffic on your machine... so please be careful).
