[tcpdump-workers] Sniffing a network interface with libpcap in a Solaris Zone

2012-08-07 Thread Joseph Freemaker
Using libpcap 1.3.0.

libpcap had a patch applied in October of 2011 for the Solaris Zone.

However when libpcap is used with a C program (that is very similar to tcpdump 
- makes the same calls) that is run in a Solaris Zone (Solaris 10) the 
following message is received:

A network mask
lookup for ce0 could not be completed
due to a
'SIOCGIFADDR: ce0: No such device or address' error condition.

Is anyone familiar with what the procedure is to use libpcap for a Solaris 
Zone? The Solaris snoop utility can open the network interface and sniff the 
packet flow.

Thanks in advance.Joe-

[tcpdump-workers] Which is fastest a 32 or 64 bit pcaplib on a 64 bit OS?

2017-04-18 Thread Joseph Freemaker
Hi,
On a 64 bit OS does a 64 bit compiled libpcap provide better performance than a 
32 bit compiled libpcap?
Thanks in advance.

[tcpdump-workers] libpcap requires Flex 2.5.31 issue

2017-04-18 Thread Joseph Freemaker
When compiling libpcap on AIX 6.1 receive the error:

configure: error: flex is insufficient to compile libpcap. libpcap requires 
Flex 2.5.31 or later, or a compatible version of lex.

However flex 2.5.4 is installed per the below:
$ flex --versionflex version 2.5.4

Is there a workaround for this issue?
