This is really more of a wireshark-users than a wireshark-dev question - but it's really a libpcap question, as the recvfrom() getting EFAULT is in libpcap, not Wireshark (Wireshark relies on libpcap/WinPcap for packet capture). Does it happen if you capture with tcpdump? What do "dumpcap -v" and "tcpdump -h" print? _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] https://wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
