Hello,
Has anyone experienced the following problem with ethereal-0.8.18-2.i686:
No matter what the preference setting is for promiscuous mode is,
ethereal-0.8.18-2.i686 does not capture packets in promiscuous mode. Only
the packets going to and from the computer are captured, BUT I have
ethereal-0_8_7-1_i386 on the same machine and it sees all network traffic.
The machine is a PIII 600 Mhz running RedHat 7.1
any clues?
