Hi Chris, As far as I'm aware, TCPDump is released under the terms of the BSD Licence - meaning that Nokia haven't got any obligations regarding releasing their modifications; and whilst it's not the most reliable information source on the planet, Wikipedia seems to corroborate that thought. I hope that helps, Tyson. On 21 December 2011 16:20, Chris Maynard <Chris.Maynard () gtech com> wrote:
If I visit http://www.wireshark.org/, I can find the GPL license without too much searching at the bottom of this page: http://www.wireshark.org/about.html. I can't seem to find the tcpdump/libpcap license mentioned anywhere on http://www.tcpdump.org/. Is it mentioned somewhere and I'm just missing it? The reason I bring this up is because I believe Nokia has modified tcpdump and is including it with their IPSO software. Tcpdump is GPL'd, isn't it? So Nokia should be making their modified tcpdump sources available; yet I can't seem to find it available for download anywhere. Thanks. - Chris - This is the tcpdump-workers list.
