trying a network app on the local system, right ? :)
 
my Solaris experience is approx. = 0, but in most OSes, packets sent to the loopback interface are actually moved from the out queue to the in queue - so there's no way to 'sniff' on the loopback interface.

Can someone tell me how to select the loopback interface for packet
capture on Solaris. (does not exist in /dev/lo)
lo0 shows up in the interface list, but when selected it cannot resolve
it (/dev/lo0 not found)

I am root.

any help appreciated,

Mike
