Loris, Thanks very much for the help!
Anybody, I'm still struggling away trying to get something to work -- I think I'm lacking in the driver development kit. I did get a current install of cygwin working nicely, but it fails to compile tcpdump and gives some cryptic remark about 'main' and -lpcap or something. (If one of you builds tcpdump with cygwin I would be ever so grateful to report exact errors.) Basically, my desire is to modify tcpdump. I do not need to modify winpcap. Do I need to compile winpcap in order to compile tcpdump? Or can I simply use the precompiled winpcap files when I compile tcpdump?
