Endace (http://www.endace.com) has ported tcpdump to receive packets from our DAG line of network measurement cards via a patched version of libpcap. We have made the original source for tcpdump, the patched libpcap, build instructions and pre-built binary tarballs for Debian Linux available for download at (http://www.endace.com/libpcap.htm and http://www.endace.com/tcpdump.htm). If you have any objections, suggestions or comments please let us know.
This is great. I will be interested in looking at it. Having gone through the process of conforming to the GPL recently, however, I have a question. This is more directed at helping you to understand the requirements of the GPL than anything else, Are you shipping this modified version of Ethereal with your hardware product? If so, are you shipping the modified source with the product as well? If so, then I believe that you are in full conformance with the GPL. However, if not, and you might already be aware of this, but you need to provide a prominent notice with the product about the source code. We are doing that in the documentation.
