Thanks Julian for responding.
My Ethereal acts as thought it is not aware
that WinPcap has been installed. Could I have it installed in the wrong folder
or could the path be incorrect? Any help along these lines would be
welcome.
Jim

Jim,
I waited a few days before responding
because I can't help you much. Maybe someone else can help, or at least
confirm that 0.10.5a or other recent versions work on Win98.
Your problem is probably not WinPcap, for
two reasons:
1. It's not involved
with File/Open.
2. I've got WinPcap
3.0 installed on a Win95 machine. It has the same two files in Program
Files\WinPcap. Look at the [CopyFiles] section at the end of Install.log to
see where the other files went. My WinPcap works (with WinDump, not Ethereal -
Ethereal gets a missing WS2-32.dll error on Win95).
You could use WinDump to confirm that WinPcap is OK, or
just don't install WinPcap. Ethereal should run without it. You wouldn't be
able to capture, but you could do File/Open to test the problem.
Julian.
