Hi Gianluca,

we are affected by the known bug "Transmitted packets are looped back on Windows 8 even when using the flag PCAP_OPENFLAGS_NOCAPTURE_LOCAL for pcap_open." in version 4.1.3, 08 mar 13.
In some situations we cannot know from the winpcap frames by any means if they are sent or received therefor we really need PCAP_OPENFLAGS_NOCAPTURE_LOCAL.
Is there any alpha or beta version (not officially supported) available that works?

Best regards,
Paul

Hi Gianluca,

thank you for your prompt reply!

Is there a way to get an alpha or beta version (not officially supported) that could do the trick?

Best regards,
Paul

WinPcap 4.1.2 is not officially supported on Windows 8 (in fact the installer should fail on it).

Have a nice day

Hello,

I am running Winpcap 4.1.2 on Windows 8 and it seems as if PCAP_OPENFLAG_NOCAPTURE_LOCAL is not working. I still see all the traffic to the adapter. The program runs fine for Win XP and Windows 7?

I searched for this issue (especially with term "Windows 8"), but got no results.

What can cause this? Any help is appreciated!

Best regards,
Paul
