	Hi,
	
	I am writing a network sniffer that uses WinPCap  3.1 Beta on
Win 2000\2003 servers.
	

Uhm, why are you using a beta of WinPcap 3.1 instead of the release
version of 3.1?

	
	
	This application works fine under any server I have used till
now,
	but recently I have installed it on blade server, and crossed
strange behavior :
	
	When my application starts it is capturing packets from period
of time  , then packets stops for any reason.
	When using other application that uses WinPCap ( Packetyzer ) I
get the same result ( even when their buffer is not full).
	

Can you tell me which exact version of WinPcap are you using? Is it a
beta of 3.1? If so, please upgrade to WinPcap 3.1 final.

	
	When I use Ethereal in regular mode( not displaying packets in
real time ) also the packets stops after few seconds , only when I check
the
	option of  " Update list of packets in real time" packets are
being captured all the time.
	
	Is there any time out that tell the adapter \ driver to stop
capture ?


No.

	
	What different setting the Ethereal is using when checking the
real time option ?
	

No different setting, it's basically something done at the UI level (not
in the capture driver).

Have a nice day
GV


	Thanks
