Hi,
What version are you running? at some stage there was a problem with ring buffers.
Best regards
Anders

Hi ,
   On the same topic I need the exact command to run Tshark capturing
files up to 200Mb each and then rolling onto the next file . I tried
this morning and it created the first file but but before it would move
to second file it would create thousands of smaller captures.

Any ideas?

Will

Hi Guy,
   Ya it seems I am really pointing my finger now at the os or card to
find out if I can change this.

Thanks for your input anyway
William

Try snoop on your V440, capturing traffic on the interface connected to
the switch's monitored port (i.e., the same port on which you tried
tcpdump and *shark), and see if you see any traffic.

If it doesn't work - as I suspect it won't - this is not an issue with
Wireshark/TShark, tcpdump, or even with the libpcap library that
Wireshark/TShark, tcpdump, and a number of other applications use for
capturing, as snoop doesn't use libpcap; it directly uses the same
underlying OS mechanism that libpcap does.  It would, instead, be a
problem with that underlying OS mechanism.

Tethereal is just the name that TShark used to have, so trying Tethereal

is just reverting to an older version of TShark.
