this is an updated version of the patch to enable using the new usb
sniffing infrastructure under linux. It retain and clean up a bit the
existing code using the kernel text interface.

The main change from the previous post is an autoconf test for the
device used by the host distro to provide the binary interface. This
test query the udev database for the usbmon device. If such device is
not found in the udev database, a default device name is provided, in
compliance with current Linux kernel naming convention.

Checked in, with some additional fixes for your e-mail address, and with a new DLT_USB_LINUX used.


Please, let me know any feedback,

I added the new DLT_USB_LINUX for the new link-layer header. It has the value 189.

p.s. the 'configure' file is still present into the libcap cvs,
shouldn't it be removed ?!?

I'm not sure why configure and config.h.in, both of which are generated by autoconf, are in CVS. Michael?
