Hi all,

I installed Ethereal 0.9.8.c (and winpcap 2.3) to capture HTTP traffic from my win2k laptop to a development server. However, when I started to capture from the interface (e.g., \Device\Packet_NdisWanlp), nothing is captured at all. All the statistics showed 0%.

I've tried to turn off all name resolution, promiscuous mode, different interfaces (\Device\Packet_NdisWanIpMbfOut...), rebooting, ... to no avail. I have also downloaded windump which gives the same problem. It seems that my winpcap is not working but there's no admin program for me to tweak. What gives ?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,
Jin-Ho

P.S. I'm using  Sony VAIO laptop if it makes any difference
