Hi,

But,

2) what happens if /tmp is full?
I'm not sure about the mechanism

designed to abstract the packet capturing APIs of at least various UNIXesque
OSes, and also MS-DOS) for 32-bit, and 64-bit Wind
Hello,
Can somebody explain to me the exact difference between the above three? I read
in the doc that wiretap is used to read .pcap or any other extn file and
winpcap and libpcap are libraries used to capture packets in wireshark.
