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

Tue Aug 25 10:43:25 PDT 2009

Oh... Thank you Gianluca. I then suppose the application is getting right handle to the driver other than what is being displayed on the console. 

Thank you once again for your help.

Regards,
J

  Hi Gianluca, 

Thanks for the information. I will check that out. 
  But this really do not help to resolve my issue. I am not able to list Atheros 
  based wireless card. Is this a bug with winpcap? Do we have any resolution? 

As I said, the Atheros Card is just listed with a 
"bogus" name, "Microsoft". And it should appear in the same way using the 
WinPcap DLLs installed by the WinPcap installer.

Have a nice day
GV

It would be great if you can help me resolve this 
  issue.

Thanks,
J

  The wireleaa card is the one named as 
  "Microsoft" (it's a complicated story, I think I explained why it's like that 
  on Vista in some previous email on WinPcap-users or 
WinPcap-bugs).

  Have a nice day

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.

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

        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
