Are we using the best default settings when Wireshark is installed for the first time on a machine? I always make these changes: - <uncheck> Ask for unsaved capture files
+1 for that. I push a /usr/local/share/preferences file to many of our systems mainly for that option.
- <check> Welcome screen and title bar shows version
Makes sense to me.
- Always start in directory (Desktop on Windows, ~/captures on Unix) - Change the toolbar style to "Icons & Text" - Add a "Packet Length (Bytes)" column titled "Bytes"
I don't add packet length, but I do add the Expert Info Severity column. Makes it easier to find warnings, etc. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
