Note that, at least on UN*X systems onto which people you *don't* want to see remote machines' rpcap passwords might be logged in, providing a password on the command line is probably not a good idea, as they might be able to see it with "ps". (The same applies if somebody to whom you don't want to show the password is watching over your shoulder.) We should probably, at minimum, support providing a user name *without* a password with "-A", and prompt the user for the password (on the UN*X command line with getpass() or some such routine; on the Windows command line with whatever's appropriate; in the GUI with a dialog box). ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <[email protected]> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
