It's an Intel machine running win2k, a firewall, and tcpdump. I am aware of windump but we actually run tcpdump on it...tcpdump is installed as part of the firewall sw install. Is there a way of finding out the versions?

Well, yes, it is - it's a capture for a network link-layer type of 99.

On what type of network device was this captured?

Presumably you mean "WinDump", right?

If so, what version of WinDump and WinPcap do you have installed?
