Greetings,

If this is my problem, just point the way...  Thanks in advance.
Recently setup an new WinXP SP2 machine, installed ethereal and it works great.  tethereal is not working -->
        error:  tethereal: Could not load wpcap.dll.

Looks like ethereal is actually working because it has it's own compiled in pcap libraries?

I have tried many things to get tethereal to find this DLL, even moving a copy into its own working directory.  No joy so far.  Any help is appreciated.  I haven't tried an eariler version of ethereal on this workstation as yet...
