<p class="MsoNormal">Hello users,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I could use some help in troubleshooting Rpcapd.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have been using remote daemon on and off for years using both Wireshark and SharpPcap.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I found rpcapd so beneficial, I submitted the C# code for the SharpPcap team to access the rpcapd.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a problem that affects Wireshark and SharpPcap the same. The system works fine, I collect and decode lots of beneficial data for my company. The issue is that the connection just stops, say in a day. It’s hard to determine when,
because there is no actual error generated when it drops. I find out by activating a test client to transmit data, but no packets come through either wireshark or SharpPcap.<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My setup:<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>Laptop Dell Latitude E6510, 3.92GB of RAM, Win7-64 bit running WinPcap 4.1.2.<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>For troubleshooting I usually have both C# app and Wireshark running together using the same rcap filter.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><![if !supportLists]><span style="mso-list:Ignore">-<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
</span></span><![endif]>rcap filters are typically “host 10.x.x.x.”<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>I would like to get to the point of having 8-12 concurrent sessions running for a month without failing.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the morning, I typically close Wireshark and the C# app. Wireshark generates an error 10054 (see attached). I believe it’s because the TCP connect was RST by the laptop when wireshark attempts to close the connection gracefully.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">BTW: I have a WS trace of the two computers showing when Wireshark received the RST.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also. I can simply restart a wireshark capture or the C# app and data will start following again. Rpcapd does not need to be restarted. The laptop does not need to pinged 1<sup>st</sup> or logged into.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope this was no too much on my first post.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best regards.<o:p></o:p></p>
