[Winpcap-users] Winpcap 4.1.2 on Server 2008 R2 (x64)

[mabra at manfbraun.de]

Hello !

Much thanks for your answer!

Since I have Server 2008, my knowledge is - sad to say - not on top :-(
A "net start ..." tells me, that the driver is "already running" ...!
So the driver is surely signed [BTW:A great thing for Open Source!!!].

So, I seem to not understand the parts of the problems ;-)
In Wireshark, I made the very wrong assumption, "to see winpcap"
somewhere, but I consider this now as my last bullsh.... On the
other hand:I have "NetworkMiner" [hosted on SourceForge], which
watches for my network and inside this program, I can select
"Winpcap" like a network interface [what I originally have
expected] and it captures really fine.

So I have no idea, whats happening. Looks like, I am missing
some knowledge .... But the sample, I tried from ShapPacp,
looks very simple .... [I tried the same on my 32 bit debian,
but it eben there, it does not work, because it misses a DLL].

Any tips, hints or pointer to further information would be
very great for me!!

The WinPcap driver is signed and should load no problem on a Windows Server
2008 R2 machine. 

What happens if you try "net start npf" from a command prompt?

Have a nice day

Hello !

I want to use SharpPcap - so the underlying WinPcap - on
a Windows Server 2008 R2 machine. I installed it successfully,
but it looks not working. Regard, all "R2" versions exists
as x64 versions only and additionally, on the server, there
is no way to use an unsigned driver. Wether my testprogram
nor Wirheshark x64 version offer me to capture packets from
the driver.

I think, the reason is, the driver is not loaded, because
it is not signed. I found no clean statement on this problem
in the docs and in the mailing list.

Is possibly someone able to point this out exactly?

Thanks a lot!
