Hello there, I would like to use the -z (*postrotate-command*) flag to easily gzip a pcap after a file rotation but it appears my current version (tcpdump 3.9.4 / libpcap 0.9.4) does not support this. I was wondering what version first incorporated this flag? The official tcpdump changelog ( http://www.tcpdump.org/tcpdump-changes.txt) doesn't appear to have any note on this feature's introduction either. I would gladly appreciate it if somebody could provide details on when exactly this feature was added. Thank you. Regards, Osman Surkatty - This is the tcpdump-workers list.
