Windows port does not support live capture.

Open Dwedit opened this issue 12 years ago • 5 comments

The Win32 build on the site does not currently work, it says that it was compiled without libpcap support, so it can't capture any packets. This makes the program almost completely useless in its present state.

I tried to quickly make a cygwin build, but it failed with compiler errors.

Your comment is noted, but it is wrong. The Windows version works fine for analysis. It's true that it doesn't do live capture, but they are far from useless, as many other people are using them. You are welcome to make the Windows version work with pcap on windows. Let me know your success with that.

(The fact that live capture doesn't work on Windows is clearly indicated.)

Hi Folks! Just curious if windows will now support this by any chance?

Thanks, Mike
