You need the headers which are in the development package, libpcap-devel.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

Capture, yes. Display, no. However, you can do whatever you want with the packets received in the callback function you register with pcap_dispatch() or pcap_loop(). Originally Posted by en_7123 Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
