2004-07-18Set the svn:eol-style property on all text files to "native", so thatGuy Harris1-1/+1
they have LF at the end of the line on UN*X and CR/LF on Windows; hopefully this means that if a CR/LF version is checked in on Windows, the CRs will be stripped so that they show up only when checked out on Windows, not on UN*X. svn path=/trunk/; revision=11400
2002-06-29Add a note that Rick Jones reports that HP-UX 11i needs no patches forGuy Harris1-1/+4
outbound promiscuous mode support. svn path=/trunk/; revision=5797
2002-04-29Note that pre-0.6 libpcap didn't handle HP-UX as well as 0.6 and laterGuy Harris1-1/+23
versions do, so you should use 0.6 or later. svn path=/trunk/; revision=5298
2002-04-29Remove the deja.com URLs for netnews articles with groups.google.comGuy Harris1-6/+10
URLs for those articles. Note that the patches mentioned in one article might not be the current ones. svn path=/trunk/; revision=5297
2002-03-11Update various README and INSTALL files to reflect the requirement forGuy Harris1-2/+2
UCD SNMP 4.2.2 or later if you want MIB-reading support. svn path=/trunk/; revision=4926
2001-04-11The Software Porting And Archive Centre for HP-UX now has libpcap 0.6.2Guy Harris1-119/+26
binaries, so users only need to make sure they have that version installed in order to have Ethereal (and tcpdump, and snort, and so on) accept "lanN"-style names (i.e., names of the sort reported by lanscan and handled by ifconfig), rather than "dlpiN". Get rid of the patches to update libpcap, get rid of the discussion in "README.hpux" of patching libpcap and just say "get 0.6.2", and make the notes on HP-UX kernel patches to fix problems with capturing outgoing packets a separate item in the list of items in "README.hpux". Also update the error messages Ethereal and Tethereal display if they can't open a device and the error is "can't find PPA for XXX" to say "get 0.6.2" rather than "patch libpcap and recompile. svn path=/trunk/; revision=3288
2001-01-10Fix up the "ethereal-dev" address to refer to "ethereal.com" rather thanGuy Harris1-5/+5
"zing.org". (We leave addresses in header lines in included mail messages alone.) svn path=/trunk/; revision=2858
2000-08-13Give, in "README.hpux", what appears to be the new URL for the UK HP-UXGuy Harris1-516/+47
Porting and Archive Centre site. Warn in the very beginning of that file that libpcap may not work very well without patches. Give patches to libpcap for: vanilla LBL libpcap 0.4 vanilla tcpdump.org libpcap 0.5 libpcap 0.4 from the HP-UX Porting and Archive Centre (which is the only version that includes configure-script changes to work with HP's C compiler as well as GCC) and put them in files separate from "README.hpux" (to make it easier for users to apply the patches). Make those versions of the patch give a slightly different error message if libpcap fails to find the PPA for the device, to make it easier to figure out if the user reporting a problem with HP-UX capture has a patched version of libpcap or not (so that we know whether the problem may just be that they're using an unmodified libpcap, or if they're running a patched version and that patch needs more work, e.g. to look at devices other than just "/dev/dlpi"). Give information on how to find "patch", warn that probably only the HP-UX Porting and Archive Centre version will work with the HP C compiler, warn that applying a version of the patch other than the one for the particular version of libpcap you've downloaded will probably not work, and warn that you need to download source to libpcap in order to do any of this in the first place. (The current libpcap CVS tree at tcpdump.org has this patch in it, so the next release of libpcap from tcpdump.org should have it; hopefully the HP-UX Porting and Archive Centre will switch to that version when it comes out, and people will just be able to push a few buttons to get an Ethereal that works on HP-UX.) svn path=/trunk/; revision=2264
2000-04-29Update the README.hpux file to contain the latest version of the libpcapGuy Harris1-126/+183
patch, which appears to work on at least some HP-UX 10.20 systems, as well as HP-UX 11.00. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1899
2000-04-04Add some additional notes aboutGuy Harris1-5/+120
building GTK+/GLib with 64-bit integer support when using HP's C compiler; libpcap; from Jost Martin. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1796
2000-02-21Add a bunch of notes from various "comp.sys.hp.hpux" threads aboutGuy Harris1-1/+125
tweaking HP-UX so that DLPI (and thus Ethereal/Tethereal and tcpdump) can see, when capturing on a given machine, packets sent by that machine. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1660
2000-02-19Give some README.<os> files RCS IDs; the other ones already have them.Guy Harris1-0/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1655
2000-02-19Note that one can probably symbolically request that nettl log incomingGuy Harris1-0/+4
and outgoing PDUs, rather than specifying a numerical mask with pduin and pduout (0x30000000). svn path=/trunk/; revision=1649
2000-02-18Move the notes on nettl support above the notes on libpcap; the notes onGuy Harris1-20/+20
libpcap are somewhat long, and if somebody doesn't look at the table of contents, but just scrolls through the file, they may get bored and give up before they get to the notes on nettl. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1645
2000-02-18Add comments about nettl support.Olivier Abad1-0/+28
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1643
2000-01-14Supply a patch that, at least on HP-UX 11.00, lets you specify toGuy Harris1-33/+459
"pcap_open_live()" a network interface name rather than a "dlpiN" name (where "N" is the PPA for the device, as reported by lanscan). svn path=/trunk/; revision=1473
1999-12-24Fix up the additions to reflect the reality that, at least on HP-UX 10.xGuy Harris1-5/+18
and 9.x, "libpcap-0.4" should, in theory, do the right thing; stuff may be different on HP-UX 11.x, and "libpcap-0.4" may not do the right thing, obliging you to use "dlpiN" devices in Ethereal. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1378
1999-12-24Add a pile of additional information derived from Rick Jones' postingsGuy Harris1-35/+79
and from the code I fetched from the URLs specified in the postings. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1377
1999-12-23Beef up the HP-UX README with some more information.Guy Harris1-0/+38
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1372
1999-11-29Add a "README.hpux" file, giving notes about the Software Porting AndGuy Harris1-0/+22
Archive Centre for HP-UX, who have (perhaps not the latest version of) Ethereal in their archives, and the HP-UX C compiler options they used when building their version. Also note in the "README.hpux" file that there are, in the "INSTALL" file for "libpcap", several comments about HP-UX that should be read if you're going to use Ethereal with "libpcap" to capture packets. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1159
