<DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>On 64bit Vista (and 2008) a driver should be signed. Not
necessarily WHQL'd. The WinPcap driver is signed with the CACE Technologies
digital signature and cross-signed with the verisign-Microsoft cross
certificate. All of this applies to kernel components. You do not need to sign
any user level component like packet.dll (although the ones provided in the
installer are signed).</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>I am trying to use the packet.dll APIs in Winpcap 4.0.2 on
Vista 64 bit. <SPAN class=187530423-12082008>There is no problem to
install Winpcap. </SPAN>After UAC is turned off, I can start the "NPF"
protocol driver (command "net start npf") <SPAN
class=187530423-12082008>successfully</SPAN>. As the "NPF" is a protocol
driver, I wonder in order for the packet API to work properly, if the driver
need to get signed via the WHQL? <BR><BR>I don't have any problem using the
Winpcap APIs on on 32 bits XP/Vista though. Thanks
