I need some "newbie" help.
It's been decided we will begin analyzing our traffic here.
So I'm to pry open the box...
I've managed to get to the point on this Mac PowerBook G4 where I can get
Ethereal to launch. However, when I try to "Capture" I'm getting the
following error:
"The capture session could not be initiated ((no devices found) /dev/bpf0:
Permission denied). Please check to make sure you have sufficient
permissions, and that you have the proper interface or pipe specified."
I'm attempting to use the native airport card in this machine to analyze
traffic on our wireless network.
I've poked around on the FAQ pages and other sites.
I'm assuming I've acquired and compiled ethereal properly.
I am logged in to the mac as admin and I HAVE set up root. I can only get
ethereal going from admin. Root gives me all kinds of other issues. Can't
even get ethereal "up".
I'm willing to do the work. Can anyone point me to a pertinent resource or
provide some leads, clues, starting points?
Appreciate any help in advance.
