Hi,
Found your post. Probably you already found information but maybe not.
I did some implementation to support Remote functionality in GUI. I compiled version which I'm using for my work. It can be download from
here. It's Win32 version.
Sorry I did not create installer version so just unpack archive to any directory and start
wireshark.exe.
Local
installed WinPCAP required. If you do not know how to install WinPCAP
just run regular WireShark installation (0.99.6 recommended). It'll do
everything needed.
If you want capture from remote Windows PC go to WinPCAP
installation directory on remote PC and start rpcapd.exe. Copy from
your Windows PC should also work.
To remote capture from Linux PC rpcapd should be started. Check for information how to build rpcapd for linux
here.
I have compiled development version of rpcapd for FC4 (can work on other linux'es as well). Available
here.
You need to use -n flag for now when rpcapd started. Read documentation (link I posted above) if have any questions on rpcapd.
After you start rpcapd, lunch my version of wireshark. Go
Properties->Capture->Edit..... You'll find a way to add new
remote interface.
Then go to Capture->Interfaces you'll see new interface in list. It should work as regular interface.
Any comments welcome.

Hi,
I am a newbie to wireshark. I am interested in using the remote capture capabilities of wireshark.I have downloaded the 1.0 version of wireshark. The release notes of earlier release says that the remote capture facility is integrated in the wireshark.
But I do not see any options on the wireshark gui to do remote capture.
I could not get much help from any of the documents or in the web either on the usage of remote capture functionality using wireshark.
I wanted to know the steps to follow to configure the remote capture.
And in linux, the rpcap feature is not enabled by default. I enabled it and the compilation is failing.
Any
information on how to configure wireshark for using the remote capture functionality and how it is designed would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance for the help
regards
Vijaya
