Is there a way with Ethereal to listen in promiscuous mode to more than one physical interface? I wish to use a TAP to monitor 10/100 networks.

The only solution that I can see is to run two instances of Ethereal, each listening to a different interface, and then using mergecap.exe to create a single file. I have not as of yet tested this, and would like to hear if this is a method that has had some success. Of course, if there is a better method I would be anxious to learn of it.

FYI - Using Windows XP Pro operating system and Ethereal 10.3

Thanks,

mike
