Has there been any discussions with folks from Apple that worked on the PCAPNG API to donate there code to tcpdump project? I am sure many (including Apple) would benefit from single source for this code as far as maintenance is concerned. Martin On Tue, Dec 6, 2016 at 1:32 PM, Guy Harris wrote:

[tcpdump-workers] Ringbuf pcap reading and "bogus savefile header" error

2016-12-06 Thread Tugrul Erdogan
