Thanks for your quick reply Stef. And hope to get your version of Windump tomorrow. I truly hope to make the remote capturing run.
Thanks again. :) ~3ve!yn -----Original Message----- From: stefmit [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 12, 2003 11:31 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [WinPcap-users] Syntax for adaptername using windump (ethereal?!?) and rpcap Actually - believe it or not - the syntax we have both been using was and is just fine. It is windump! Fulvio was so persistent in trying to help, that even after I gave up and was going to re-install everything from scratch, he made one last attempt and emailed me his windump copy. And it worked!!! I am at home right now, and the copy of his windump is on one of my PCs at work (where I actually use Windows), and if Fulvio does not beat me to it, I could email it to you tomorrow morning (CST). I did not have - yet - any chance to check what is the difference between his and the one I grabbed from winpolito.it, but I was happy it worked. Stef P.S. Off-topic: I don't know if any one of you knows, but there are these products called IT Guru and ACE, made by OPNET (http://www.opnet.com) which have/use an agent based on winpcap 2.x (actually beta testing 3.0 now), which products are capable of trigerring a remote capture (besides many other things - very cool product - worth looking at it for anyone interested in some nice network analysis package, by the way). This is how I actually got interested in rpcap ... and still wondering how they do it in their agent...
