winpcap_mode cmdline param is not respected

[Bobby Abraham <rabraham () optirtc com>]

I made this issue in Githib before I found this mailing list, apologies for
not asking here first:
https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/881

> From the ticket:

When I attempt a silent install of npcap like so:
>


npcap-0.86.exe /S /winpcap_mode=yes
>


the wincap_mode param is not respected.
> I'm trying to use Elasticsearch Packetbeat on that machine, and after my
> attempted installation, it complains about wpcap.dll being missing from the
> machine. When I run npcap-0.86.exe and check "*Install Ncap in WinPcap
> API-Compatible mode*", Packetbeat no longer complains about missing the
> wpcap.dll.



Does anyone know of the top of their head if I'm using the wrong syntax,
etc?


Thanks!
Bobby
