Hello,

I am not subscribe to the list, please reply me directly.  Thank you.

I am currently debugging a PERL socket program that I am writing.  To
test the the program, I need to capture the tcp packets that are over
the MS loopback adaptor.  I have search the archive and the status has
been that it is not supported in Windows.  Has there been a change in
the status?

I have another alterntive which is to use RedHat linux 7.1.  Will
Ethereal be able to capture the loopback on that platform?

TIA.
Vincent
