alan.muniz32 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I'm having trouble installing ethereal. I've used it before but my new laptop won't let it work. And yes I have read there website, but what the hell does, "You'll either have to build from source or install UCD SNMP 4. 1. 2 or later (with the same shared library version number as the not-binary-compatible-with-earlier-Red-Hat-releases libsnmp that comes with RH 6. 2). " mean. I just wanna use this simple software? Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan.muniz32 Posted November 12, 2007 Author Share Posted November 12, 2007 How about any ethereal alternatives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Famicoman Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Maybe its that fact that ethereal has been replaced by Wireshark for years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deleted Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Is it that the Install Method for Ethereal and Wireshark are the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Umm... download and double click on the exe (yes, install winpcap), or type "apt get install wireshark", "yum install wireshark" or "cd /usr/ports/net/wireshark && make install wireshark". If your on windows you should know how to install things, and if your using some form of *nix use the package manager as it takes care of all that stuff for you. Edit 1: And i've just twigged that your on a mac, so you will need to install an X11 server and use the GTK version. Have a look at http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki Edit 2: I misread the above post by DarkBlueBox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
