Tried that too, but there was a broken sym link (hope that makes sense) to libsnmp-0.4.2.1 (I think).  I pointed it to the .3 version, which was installed.
 
Now I run ethereal and I get:
 
Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 
 
Then, after a google search, I entered:
 
 export DISPLAY=172.166.226.117:0.0  (Yes, I'm not home now and connected via AOL.)
 
Now I get the msg:
 

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 172.166.226.117:0.0

	Don't try to use the rpm of ethereal if you aren't using the rpm's of libpcap.  Compile from source.  I'd suggest you check your /usr/src/ethereal-0.9.3 directory ;-)

		Hi,
		 
		I'm brand new to ethereal, and to kismet, which brought me here,
		 
		Just got kismet working, after much hair pulling, and am trying to get ethereal working.
		 
		I'm running redhat 7.2, with the latest tcpdump pcap stuff (I believe).
		 
		But, when I try to run ethereal, I get:
		 
		[root@localhost etc]# ethereal
		ethereal: error while loading shared libraries: libsnmp-0.4.2.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
		 
		I downloaded the latest rmps and get:
		 
		[root@localhost src]# rpm -i ethereal-b*
		error: failed dependencies:
		        libpcap.so.0.6.2   is needed by ethereal-base-0.9.3-1
		        libsnmp.so.0   is needed by ethereal-base-0.9.3-1
		 
		What am I missing?
		 
		Thanks,
