Hello everyone...hope someone can help me. I am trying to capture packets from another machine on my network. When I click the "remote" option and type in the ip address and port number I would like to capture, an error message comes up that says "Can't get list of interfaces: The other host terminated the connection". Also, when I try to use port 80 instead of the port I am getting the other message with, it returns this error message: "Can't get list of interfaces: Is the server properly installed on #.#.#.#? connect() failed: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. (code 10061) " I have tried to find any info on this online but have been unsuccessful. Any help is appreciated.. Thanks! asked 17 Jan '11, 07:18  atomv edited 17 Jan '11, 07:35 |

The remote capture feature is used to capture frames on a remote host running rpcapd. I guess you're having the wrong idea about its purpose. If you want to capture frames of another system you have to do that via monitor session, network tap or other techniques. See the Wireshark Wiki for common ways to capture. answered 17 Jan '11, 07:50  Jasper ♦♦ |
