One Answer:
Please see http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/CapturePrivileges. I suspect that you are running Wireshark without elevated privileges (which is the safest way). (This is the default unless you use "run as administrator" to start Wireshark (not recommended)). I also suspect that the NPF (Winpcap) driver is not running. As noted in the above link the NPF driver needs to be started/running before trying to use Wireshark without elevated privileges. answered 17 Mar '11, 19:49 Bill Meier ♦♦ edited 17 Mar '11, 19:51 |
