Yes, that'd work - but it's not running in an operating system different from Windows, it's running on W2K. W2K happens to be running on a simulated PC inside VMWare on Windows, but that's different from running WinPcap and a WinPcap application directly on Linux - for one thing, it can only capture on the simulated network devices, but I don't know whether that'd let you get traffic from the real network interface. ================================================================== This is the WinPcap users list.
