[Winpcap-users] compiling npf driver and packet library on vista

Hi Gianluca,

Thank you for the quick responce. I get the list of adapters that are inbuilt in the system. Below is how it shows me on the command prompt (I am running my application in elevated mode).

c:\adapters>list.exe

No.: 0 ==> MS Tunnel Interface Driver
No.: 1 ==> Microsoft
No. :2 ==> Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Driver.

I suppose listing of wireless cards is not happening. Am I using the right release? I have compiled the npf.sys and placed it under /system32/drivers folder and packet.dll under windows/system folder. 

The same application works fine in XP. Kindly advice.

Thanks,
J

Hi Gianluca,

I successfully compiled the npf driver and 
  the packet library. I wrote a small application to list down the adapters 
  present. I am facing an issue here where in I observed that only Atheros based 
  card are not getting listed. Is this a known issue? Is there is a solution to 
  this problem?

Configuration:

1. Vista Business/Ultimate 
  SP1
2. Winpcap 4.1.beta

I am able to list all micosoft and broadcom 
  based cards. Please help me to get some resolution to above 
  matter.

Thanks,
J

  Thanks a lot Gianluca  I will surely have a look at wcap.dll 
  code.

    Hi All,

I want my application talk to driver and receive the 
    packets captured  from air. And for the same I need protocol driver to 
    talk pull the packets from the driver and put them to user buffer. I have 
    4.1 wpcap source.

I have few questions. It would be great if some one 
    can help me with them:

1. Compilation environment for npf (protocol 
    driver) and packet library.
     
  Please follow the directions in the WinPcap 
  developer's pack, or online at
   
  http://www.winpcap.org/docs/docs_41b5/html/group__compilation.html
  
    
2. Will I have to do any changes in packet library to make it work 
    for my driver to push the packets up the application?
     
  Integrating support for a new "driver" can be 
  tricky. I suggest you to integrate it at the wpcap.dll level, it's much easier 
  than integrating it into packet.dll. If you modify wpcap.dll, I suggest you to 
  download the sources for 4.1beta5 and have a look at how I added support for 
  the TurboCap cards in the files pcap-tc.h and pcap-tc.c
  
    
3. Are there any odds that needs to be taken care in Vista? I am 
    new to this part of windows.

  No. 
  
    
Your help is greatly appreciated 
     
  Have a nice day
  GV

Thanks,
J
