Hi, I can't seem to get tcpdump to work on my home system. I resently got a second machine (so my 3 1/2 year old wouldn't monopolize the computer!) and hooked the 2 machines up via a cross over cable. Both machines have SMC 8432T cards, which is the de driver. The second computer has Win98. The primary computer uses Win95 and FreeBSD. Ok, I have pseudo-device bpfilter 4 in the config. (I did a !!grep bpfilter LINT in vi). Rebuilt and rebooted. tcpdump gives me errors that it can't find /dev/bpf[0-4] as I add them one at a time. After adding bpf4 (which I know shouldn't exist), I get bpf4: device not configured. It's running 2.2.6-RELEASE, and the only network I have is lo0, de0 and tun0. I'm running ppp -alias and am trying to get the Win98 machine to go through, but it's not happening, hence tcpdump. I did test ppp -alias with my laptop, when I was running 2.2.5-Release. I also remember tcpdump working on 2.2.5. I also have tcpdump working fine on machine's here at work (with fxp and vx devices). Any ideas?
