Hello. I'm certain there are lots of newbie questions posted. I was unable to find a searchable archive of past postings (if anyone has a URL). My problem is this: ERROR: OpenPcap() FSM compilation failed: parse error PCAP command: start Fatal Error, Quitting.. Log directory = Reading Conf File... Initializing Network Interface eth0 256 I compiled libcap 0.6.2 specifically for this. I also recompiled my kernel, 2.4.2, just to be certain. Any ideas on what is causing this? I understand the error is with PCAP. I have tried installing different versions, 0.4.39 also. Still doens't resolve the problem. My best guess is maybe an incompatibility between tcpdump and libpcap. Any ideas? Help please. This is an almost stock RH7.1 on x86 hardware.
