Hi, I do this on an Ubuntu 10.04 server: root@doppio:~# tcpdump -c1000 net xxx.yy.zz.0/24 > /tmp/tcpdump.pcap tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes 1000 packets captured 1058 packets received by filter Then I copy it down to my Mac where I have wireshark installed. Version 1.3.4 (SVN Rev 32340 from /trunk) In the finder the file gets the right icon. When I double click it, Wireshark is thinking for a few seconds, than puts this message up: The file "/Volumes/Home/janos/tcpdump.pcap" isn't a capture file in a format Wireshark understands. So the question is how should I do the tcpdump on Ubuntu to be able to open it in Wireshark on my Mac ? Thanks ahead, János ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
