Wireshark · Ethereal-users: [Ethereal-users] Will not hold config

[Jeff Peterson <jpeterson@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ethereal will not hold my config from one capture to another.  Each time I
start a capture, I have to specify the interface again.  I have an Intel
8255x based NIC.  Ethereal gives me that or the NDISWan adapter to choose
from.  If I choose the NDIS device, it captures nothing, of course, but if I
choose the Intel it works OK.  The next time I try to do a capture, though,
the default is '\device\packet_{2d18A1...'.  I have choose the Intel again.

Platform:  Compaq Deskpro - Windows XP - 128mb RAM.

NOTE:  I have a Dell laptop, with built-in NIC, running XP, and it works
fine.
