Max, correct me if I'm wrong but tcpdump will only give you the headers, is that correct? This is fine most of the time but sometimes I need to capture full frames.

Other than that building either the real or the -lite version with "WITHOUT_X11" defined will get you the cli-version. "-lite" seems to just disable a couple of dissectors that have a lot of external dependencies. -- /"\ Best regards, | mlaier@freebsd.org \ / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | mlaier@EFnet / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News ____________________________________________________________________________________ Expecting?
