Hi,

just a question; I have a WinPCap 2.3 on disk with a file-date of April 10,
2002 - time 12.49AM, which I downloaded quite some time  ago. And I have this
week downloaded WinPCap 2.31 dated March 20th, 2002, time 10.12 AM. Is there
anyone who understands what is happening here?

I think I only saw this error before in this regard; The WinPCap site mentions
to completely deinstall all old WinPCap software before installing a newer/the
latest version of WinPCap - could it be in that direction? Additionally, per
the above I have WinPCap 2.31 on disk, perhaps you need the latest?

Any comments on the weird file-dates above I would appreciate.

I had this problem too. THe WinDump tool provided here was a great help:
http://windump.polito.it

If i'm not mistaken, I had to uninstall all network add-ons and re-install the
one from their site directly.

I installed using the procedure for Win32/Apache/ACID on the SiliconDefense
website and the links it provided to the installer.  Snort was installed by
extracting it and copying to the requested directories.  WinPcap was an
installer and I didn't see any errors on install.  Now for what it's worth, I
also ran the Windows Update feature and put all the latest security patches on
Win2000.

Jon,

 

I don't know what in the heck is going on as there are a LOT of people having
this problem. How did you install Snort? Did you use an installer? Did you
manually install Snort and WinPcap? I've fixed a multitude of these errors in
the past couple of weeks.

I'm setting up a new install of Snort on Win2k and I'm getting the "ERROR:
OpenPcap( ) device open: Error opening adapter: Overlapped I/O operation is in
progress.  Fatal Error, Quitting.."

 

The FAQ says this can be due to an old incompatible, or uninstalled version of
WinPcap.  I'm using 2.3 and the install appears to be running successfully. Is
there any way I can check to make sure it is, or is this already a known issue?

 

Thanks,
JonM
