The syntax of the tcpdump '-D' should IMHO be changed and merged into the '-i' option. Especially considering the introduction of remote and file capture in WinPcap 3.0. We should agree on a uniform syntax. How about: List all local devices: tcpdump -i? List all remote devices: tcpdump -i rpcap://remotehost/? List all capture files in dir: tcpdump -i file://dir/? List all capture files in dir: tcpdump -r dir/? Thus we need some new libpcap functions. pcap_findall_captures() and pcap_findall_remote_devs() ?? Should be pretty easy to support this in the rpcap daemon. BTW. There must be a bug somewhere in the Win32 port:
windump -i1
windump.exe: listening on \Device\NPF_{93380695-0E31-456C-9EB0-8802E111C09D}blue►
windump
windump.exe: listening on \Device\NPF_{93380695-0E31-456C-9EB0-8802E111C09D} Some trailing "blue.." in the first example. --gv - This is the TCPDUMP workers list.
