[Winpcap-users] building pcaplib & rpcap in Linux

[Gianluca Varenni]

Patric,

we are aware of the issue with compiling rpcapd and winpcap under linux.  Unfortunately at the moment we do not have an official maintainer for the remote capture features, so bugs in this area take a long time to be fixed. Are you able to provide a fix to the issue?

Have a nice day
GV

      compiling pcaplib & rpcap in Linux (Ubuntu) from the 4.1.1 sources
      http://www.winpcap.org/install/bin/WpcapSrc_4_1_1.zip
      also tried the one with 64bit support...
      http://www.winpcap.org/install/bin/WpcapSrc_4_1_build_1327.zip

      building pcaplib
      ./configure (OK, no problems)

      I change in the generated Makefile

      @V_HAVE_REMOTE@ |-> -DHAVE_REMOTE
      REMOTESRC = @V_REMOTE_FILES@ |-> REMOTESRC = pcap-new.c pcap-remote.c sockutils.c

      make (gives errors)

      gcc -O2 -fPIC -I.  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -D_U_="__attribute__((unused))" -DHAVE_REMOTE -c ./pcap-linux.c
      ./pcap-linux.c: In function ‘pcap_create’:
      ./pcap-linux.c:322: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘pcap_opensource_remote’ from incompatible pointer type
      ./pcap-linux.c:322: error: too many arguments to function ‘pcap_opensource_remote’
      ./pcap-linux.c:322: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
      ./pcap-linux.c:327: error: ‘snaplen’ undeclared (first use in this function)
      ./pcap-linux.c:327: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
      ./pcap-linux.c:327: error: for each function it appears in.)
      ./pcap-linux.c:328: error: ‘to_ms’ undeclared (first use in this function)
      ./pcap-linux.c:329: error: ‘promisc’ undeclared (first use in this function)
      ./pcap-linux.c:339: error: ‘p’ undeclared (first use in this function)
      make: *** [pcap-linux.o] Error 1

      I read the reason could be:
      WinPcap's modified pcap-linux.c has been updated for the new libpcap  
      1.0 APIs; its modified pcap-bpf.c has not been.


      where can I find sources not broken for compiling pcaplib & rpcap in Linux???
      thanks a lot
      Pat
