Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Wireshark on Windows 10 -trying to sniff traffic on a remote machine via sshdump n

[AllSort ofQuestions <allsortofquestions@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi guys

I am trying to sniff the traffic on a remote Linux machine

The local machine is Windows 10 and the wireshark version is 2.9 (I also tried 2.6.6, latest obtained via Check for updates)

Here is what the debug file shows me when I use the sshdump interface

cmdline: C:\Program Files\Wireshark\extcap\sshdump.exe --capture --extcap-interface sshdump --fifo \\.\pipe\wireshark_extcap_sshdump_20190119121535 --remote-host 10.16.31.37 --remote-password XXXXXXXXXXX --debug true --remote-sudo true --remote-capture-command tcpdump -U -i ens160 -w- --debug-file debug.txt --remote-username minime --remote-interface ens160

Remote capture command has disabled other options

Running: tcpdump -U -i ens160 -w-


the firewall is inactive

using tcpdump at the remote end I can see wireshark trying to establish connection
using who shows me no user from my worskstation address..I think the session is not opening but I can't say what is wrong

thanks
