Hi all, I want to run snort to monitor a ppp connection on a win2k box. I know that this really depends on WinPcap and that it doesn't support ppp on win2k (see faq below). Has anyone found a workaround for this? Many thanks, Sherif ---

Q-4: Can I use WinPcap on a PPP connection? A: We have tested WinPcap on PPP connections under Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows ME. In Windows 95, due to a bug in NDIS, WinPcap sometimes resets the PPP connection. In Windows 98/ME this bug appears to be corrected, and WinPcap seems to work properly. Under Windows NT and Windows 2000 there are problems with the binding process, that prevents a protocol driver from working properly on the WAN adapter. _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
