Hey everyone, 

Long time lurker, first time poster. :)

Real stupid question. I'm trying to run tethereal under WinXP to capture
data from my laptop (Ethereal.exe works just fine). The problem is unless I
specify which adapter to use, tethereal defaults the the PPP adapter then
generates an error for obvious reasons. The problem is I'm not sure of the
arguement syntax for the -i switch. What tool can I use to look this
information up? The ipconfig isn't helpful.

Thanks,

Guy Goodenough
