I'm assuming when I do the verify_tools step, it confirms that I'm using 
nmake/cl/link from VS8 based on the output:
   
  C:\wireshark>nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools
  Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 8.00.50727.42
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.
  Checking for required applications:
        cl: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/VC/BIN/cl
        link: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/VC/BIN/link
        nmake: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/VC/BIN/nmake
          bash: /usr/bin/bash
        ............

  the wiki page suggest you ONLY use nmake/cl/link from VS8 (true name of

but make sure NOT use nmake/cl/link from 2003 server SDK R2 under windows 2000.

Hope this will help.

Yes.  You also need to make changes to config.nmake to indicate the use
of VC6.

I guess folks are:

a) Using a combination of EE and SDK that works on W2K 
b) Not testing/using on W2K
c) Using VS2005 Pro or better with a different SDK.

We have had several threads in the past few months with this issue, but
no-one who has had the issue has stayed the course until we resolved it. 

You may want to buck the trend!
