Hi folks,
I am writing a program
that makes use of Windows Sockets, and I thought I might use Wireshark to watch
the traffic go back and forth across my network. However, the Shark
doesn't seem to capture the packets generated by my program.
I send data from the
client computer to the server computer using a regular TCP connection onto port
2022 of the server. I know the server is receiving the information,
because it is able to print it on the screen.
Wireshark seems to be
capturing other data just fine, such as HTTP traffic on port 80, and VNC traffic
(I use that to fiddle with my server so I don't have to walk back and forth
between my computers). Switching promiscuous mode on or off doesn't seem
to help. Also, it doesn't seem to make a difference whether I'm running
Wireshark on the client or the server side of the connection.
I am wondering if maybe
it's the API call I'm using. I am using send() and recv() found in
winsock2.h. Does this API call somehow bypass the driver that Shark uses
to capture traffic? I'm a bit stymied, and would like to see my bytes
flowing :-P
