[Winpcap-users] Multithreaded programming with WinPCap

[Marcel van Lieshout]

What would be the optimal multi-threading approach? Synchronization on a 
single handle or multiple handles from multiple calls to pcap_open_live()?

Is there a way to open an interface for send-only (win32)? If not: Should I 
set a filter to drop everything or can I just let the kernelbuffer fill up?
