Hi,

Are you logged in as Administrator or someone else with the proper rights
to capture from an interface?

When I Start a capture session, the following error is displayed:

"The Capture Session could not be initiated (Please check to see that the
proper adapter is specified)"

No interfaces are found by the software (apparently) and entering the IP
address or eth1 doesn't work.

I am using:

WinNT server 4.0 on dual intel PIII 1.4 GHz
dual Intel 10/100 NICs (neither show up in the capture screen)
WinPcap 3 alpha 2
Ethereal is 0.9.6

Thanks,

Gary Shaffer
