Hi Danny!

Glad to hear that this solved your problem, still uncertain why it
wasn't working for you.

Regards, ULFL

P.S: It's a good idea to send such mails to the list and not
individuals, so people can search in the lists archive and find
question/solution/solved mails if they have a similar problem.

In the long term we might need both. I "often" have to deal with TCP
problems, so a dedicated TCP graph of that kind might be useful too.

However, the graph you describe seems to be useful too, so having both
general and specific graphs for different purposes seems to be a good idea.

Thanks from me too.

As the VoIP graph is looking very nice and seems to be useful (but I
don't use VoIP), having some more sophisticated "stats" in a general
purpose way is the way we should go in my eyes.

Regards, ULFL

P.S: Please keep an eye on GUI consistency, e.g. the button shouldn't be
called "Write to file" but "Save As" as in some other dialogs.

Hi all,

I am using ethereal in RedHat linux and all is working well using ethereal
with root user but I need to use ethereal by non-root user for particular
reasons. Please someone tell me how to configure my linux box for use
ethereal with non-root user? I already used sudo but it does not work.

Thanks,

Johnny

Hi,
I've been running packet captures on Ethereal and I've noticed an odd
problem. I recently had to have Windows 2000 Server installed in my laptop
(with the latest patch). I've also installed and reinstalled WinPcap_3. I
find that whenever I run a packet capture with no filters at all, I cannot
see any of the packets going out from my machine apart from ARPs and
broadcasts. I can see all the responses coming back to my IP address though.
Any ideas on what's going wrong here?

Thanks,
Archie Winful

Hi Johnny --

You probably need to allow the selected non-root user to use
ethereal by making an entry in the sudoers file.

See 'man sudoers' for more information.

Hi all,
       I am newbie in ethereal anylyzing code. I read
README.developer and found some info regarding
dissector_add that its prototype must be of form

dissector_add("PARENT_SUBFIELD", ID_VALUE,
PROTOABBREV_handle);

         Then i check packet-ip.c for understanding
that and found alot of that calls
dissector_add("ethertype", ETHERTYPE_IP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("ppp.protocol", PPP_IP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("ppp.protocol", ETHERTYPE_IP,
ip_handle);
	dissector_add("gre.proto", ETHERTYPE_IP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("gre.proto", GRE_WCCP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("llc.dsap", SAP_IP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("ip.proto", IP_PROTO_IPIP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("null.type", BSD_AF_INET, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("chdlctype", ETHERTYPE_IP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("osinl.excl", NLPID_IP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("fr.ietf", NLPID_IP, ip_handle);
	dissector_add("x.25.spi", NLPID_IP, ip_handle);
        dissector_add("arcnet.protocol_id",
ARCNET_PROTO_IP_1051, ip_handle);
        dissector_add("arcnet.protocol_id",
ARCNET_PROTO_IP_1201, ip_handle);
        Why does each dissector functions required in
packet-ip.c? Does that mean no. of protocols that can
give packet data handle to IP protocol? If that is the
case then why ICMP handoff has
 dissector_add("ip.proto", IP_PROTO_ICMP,
icmp_handle);
  dissector_add("wtap_encap", WTAP_ENCAP_RAW_ICMP,
icmp_handle);
            First one is ok that ICMP packet processed
IP header and then giving data part to ICMP but what
is other thing wtap_encap?

       Also why proto_reg_handoff_ip has 
        dissector_add_handle("udp.port", ip_handle);
How a parent SUBFIELD be udp?
regards,
linux_lover.
