wpcap.dll (the highest level library of WinPcap) is completely compatible with libpcap, the packet library that works on most Unix flavors. Therefore a program based on wpcap.dll, or at least its capture part, should be easily protable to Unix and vice versa. For example, programs like tcpdump, snort and ethereal were ported to win32 using this method. You can look at the libpcap manual as a starting point.

Can u please tell me how can i write code that will compile on UNIX as well as on Windows without or with minimum alterations. Thank you.
