Hi Gerald,
I tried the binary mentioned by you. But it requires a dynamic library for
zlib (libz.so.2).
The zlib binary which i have is only statically linked (libz.a). So I am not
able to run
the ethereal. Do you have any pointers as to where I can find a dynamically
linked zlib binary ?
I do not want to compile the source code for zlib. I need all binaries only.
Thanks for the quick response.
