Title: Using Ethereal on Win 2000 Laptop

I am confused, some somebody explain to me why having installed this on my machine that uses a Xircom dual port dial-up/lan pcmcia card it doesn't support capturing on a PPP/WAN interface. Does this mean I cannot use it at all or am I missing something basic here ?. It can't open my adaptor and says ensure the correct one is selected in the list but they all produce the same error. I cannot understand exactly what the error is actually trying to tell me.

That seems daft as why should the application exist for a Win 2000 OS when it cannot work.

Thanks in advance,

Henry Meleg
