Re: Capture PPP on Windows Vista

Hi,

Starting from 0.05 r3, Npcap supports Vista in the same way with Win7,
Win8, Win10, as Vista also uses NDIS 6. Vista uses NDIS 6.0 binaries and
Win7 and later systems uses NDIS 6.2 binaries. Try installer at:
https://svn.nmap.org/nmap-exp/yang/NPcap-LWF/npcap-nmap-0.05-r3.exe

I hope this would help.


Cheers,
Yang

Hi Michal,

Do you have try npcap or Win10pcap ? because it is NDIS 6.0 ready (and
winpcap is only NDIS 5 for the moment...)


I do not think any of them support PPP neither (I cannot find any
reference to ndiswanbh in Npcap source code). Let's ee if Yang comments or
not ;)
Anyway Vista is completely obsolete and AFAIK Npcap uses the NDIS6 driver
starting from Windows 7 (and uses WinPcap 4.1.3 for XP and Vista). So even
if he was willing / able to add support it would not help here.


And as you stated, this is more a WinPcap/Npcap discussion than Wireshark.
If his PPP device is connected through USB, he could try USBPcap. If not,
there is no solution right now (AFAIK). Maybe use Message Analyzer instead?
yes I know it hurts... :) ).


Regards,

Hello,

One user (maybe more...) complains that Wireshark does not support
capturing PPP on Windows Vista.
WinPcap does not support it for unknown reason:
https://www.winpcap.org/misc/faq.htm#Q-5

But I found that:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb404173%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

My question is: Is there anyone interested to add missing feature or
maybe it is not possible? I not sure what for other Windows.
