Hello,

If I want to start capturing packets, I am getting the following error
message from ethereal:
"There are no network interfaces that can be opened.
 Please check to make sure you have sufficient permission
 to capture packets."

I have started ethereal as user root, my network is up and running, I can
run tcpdump, I cannot find out what could be wrong.

Does anybody have an idea?



Thanks in advance, Thomas
