Thanks for responding. It's true that I do have VMWare running on most of my Honeyd machines, so when I get back home I'm going to test the theory. I do know that I have disabled and uninstalled the VMWare drivers on my current travel machines and it had no impact...but maybe there's driver reminants that don't remove automatically. And when I run both Winpcap and Honeyd -W, they report the correct network drivers. I'm on the road, but heading home today. I'm going to test these three theories: 1. It's a new Wincap error, so I'll try it with old version. 2. It's a VMWare problem, I'll try it on a machine that never had VMWare. 3. Try running it on Win9x vs. W2K or above. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ray" <raymond () silenttrace com> To: "Roger A.

Not sure if Mike agrees with me on this or not but I think its a Winpcap issue. I have noticed that at times Winpcap doesn't notice or find all
the
available NICS on a win32 system. Thus if you are running vmware or more than one nic can be found it will select only one of them and thus honeyd might not see the right nic to monitor. Sorry but it is quite early for me here and I may have my own wording backwards and that winpcap sees them all but only passes one ... Not sure but do know that you are correct and that it is the latest version of winpcap that started the mess. Hope it helps or at least gets you three thinking in a new direction.
