2000-08-15Remove the IPv6 restriction for the Follow TCP stream feature.Laurent Deniel1-4/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=2274
2000-07-28Add the re-write of the NetWare Core Protocol dissector. It's mostlyGilbert Ramirez1-2/+16
a framework for the dissector; of the more than 400 NCP packet types, only a handful are defined. But this dissector framework is much better than the previous one. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2173
2000-06-08Document the fact that we can now read compressed Sniffer files.Gilbert Ramirez1-6/+6
svn path=/trunk/; revision=2047
2000-04-13Add last minute changes.Gilbert Ramirez1-2/+2
Fix statement about Win32 version not capturing in README. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1846
2000-02-19Give it an RCS ID.Guy Harris1-0/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1656
2000-01-26Move version to 0.8.2, add Win32 to list of platforms in README.Gilbert Ramirez1-2/+3
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1562
2000-01-14Note that the Ethereal distribution also comes with Tethereal andGuy Harris1-18/+26
editcap. Expand the list of OSes on which Ethereal has (at least at one time) been built and used. Note that systems other than Solaris that use DLPI (e.g., HP-UX) may also have "/dev" entries that can be made more widely readable and writable to allow non-root users to capture packets. Note that we can read "i4btrace" capture files. Note that we now always do SNMP dissection, and that an external library just allows us to do more sophisticated dissection. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1470
2000-01-10Remove the reference to my old samples directory on the web server;Gilbert Ramirez1-4/+0
the new ethereal web site contains a link to its own samples directory. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1450
1999-11-29Of the "zlib" functions we use that aren't in all versions of "zlib",Guy Harris1-5/+6
"gzgets()" is the one most recently added; it was added in 1.0.9. Check for it, rather than for a list of functions, when checking for "zlib" support - if you check for N functions, and they're all there, you get N "-lz"s added to the list of libraries with which to link. Indicate in the README that "zlib" versions prior to 1.0.9 definitely won't work. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1144
1999-11-29Fix a typo, and just say that "ethereal -v" indicates the versions ofGuy Harris1-4/+3
the libraries with which Ethereal was built, rather than enumerating all the libraries for which it gives the version. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1143
1999-11-29Add info about zlib version support.Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+8
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1138
1999-11-26Update documentation about iptrace version support.Gilbert Ramirez1-1/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1118
1999-11-23Add AIX doco and modify references to it.Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1096
1999-11-04Note that "ethereal -v" should give the GTK+ and "libpcap" versionGuy Harris1-1/+4
numbers. svn path=/trunk/; revision=975
1999-11-04Expand the description of the steps to take when reporting a bug.Guy Harris1-3/+11
svn path=/trunk/; revision=973
1999-10-31Add a module to wiretap to be able to read trace files from Toshiba'sGilbert Ramirez1-6/+23
line of ISDN routers. Much like the ascend reader, this module reads an ASCII hex dump of trace data. Rearranged the order in which wiretap tries trace files, to keep the ASCII-readers (ascend and toshiba) at the end, and put the binary-readers (everything else) at the front of the list. If a telnet session of and ascend trace or toshiba trace were captured near the beginning of another trace, wiretap might think the trace was ascend or toshiba if it tried that module first. Fixed the way wtap_seek_read() selects functions to call. It was using the encap type instead of the file type. We got lucky because WTAP_ENCAP_ASCEND == WTAP_FILE_ASCEND svn path=/trunk/; revision=952
1999-10-22Mention nettl in docs, and mention VLAN addition in NEWS.Gilbert Ramirez1-1/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=904
1999-09-24Changed version to 0.7.5Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=722
1999-09-13Updated documentation with Lucent/Ascend information.Gerald Combs1-2/+21
svn path=/trunk/; revision=674
1999-08-27Updated docs.Gilbert Ramirez1-12/+15
svn path=/trunk/; revision=594
1999-08-20Made handling of byte strings in scanner and parser much simpler,Gilbert Ramirez1-3/+3
improving size of grammar and creating the possibility of dfilter_compile reporting errors back to user. In this case, if an ETHER variable is compared against a byte string that is not 6 bytes, an error condition is flagged appropriately. I have not put in the code to conver that error flag to a message to the user, but that's what I'm working on next. Also, fixed sample debug session in README to show correct gdb prompt. svn path=/trunk/; revision=522
1999-08-20Made iptrace wiretap module return error on partial packets, instead ofGilbert Ramirez1-0/+37
expecting it as normal. Added paragraph about iptrace oddities to README. I also added a section to the README about how to report bugs. svn path=/trunk/; revision=519
1999-08-04Fix a typo.Guy Harris1-1/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=437
1999-08-04Fixed match_selected to work with new display filter code. It usesGilbert Ramirez1-2/+3
"frame[x:y]" in the display filte that it creates so that it works with any datalink type. svn path=/trunk/; revision=431
1999-08-03Update documentation, including display filter docs.Gilbert Ramirez1-7/+3
svn path=/trunk/; revision=427
1999-07-09Add back in the note about GNU "make", "flex", and "bison"/BerkeleyGuy Harris1-2/+15
"yacc" being required. svn path=/trunk/; revision=352
1999-07-09Added the ability to create a read-only ethereal, i.e., one thatGilbert Ramirez1-16/+6
doesn't link with libpcap, so no packet captures can be made. The "--disable-pcap" option has been added to the configure script. Docs have been updated. And the string buffer size in the simple_dialog() has been doubled so that Johan's e-mail address in the "About" dialogue window doesn't get chopped off. svn path=/trunk/; revision=351
1999-07-07Created a new protocol tree implementation and a new display filterGilbert Ramirez1-13/+0
mechanism that is built into ethereal. Wiretap is now used to read all file formats. Libpcap is used only for capturing. svn path=/trunk/; revision=342
1999-07-04Note that non-GNU "make"s appear not to be able to build Ethereal, andGuy Harris1-0/+13
that you need "flex" and either "bison" or Berkeley "yacc". (XXX - should notes such as this go in some other file, e.g. INSTALL? I discovered the "flex" and "bison"/byacc requirement on a Solaris 7 system, but it's probably a problem on other commercial UNIXes, as well, so it probably doesn't belong in, say, "README.solaris".) svn path=/trunk/; revision=337
1999-06-21Added a paragraph explaining that the SNMP decode in ethereal usesGilbert Ramirez1-0/+11
either the UCD or CMU SNMP library. Also documented the fact that SNMP support in ethereal can be disabled with the "--disable-snmp" option to 'configure'. svn path=/trunk/; revision=322
1999-04-30Miscellaneous updates of README and README.tru64 created.Laurent Deniel1-0/+3
svn path=/trunk/; revision=250
1999-04-30Docs updated for ethereal-0.6.0Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+5
svn path=/trunk/; revision=248
1999-03-28Jun-ichiro's IPv6 patch is merged in with ethereal and now uses the newGilbert Ramirez1-3/+21
proto*() functions. The configure script tries to use ipv6 name resolution if it knows the type of ipv6 stack the user has (this can be avoided with the --disable-ipv6 switch) Additionally, the configure script now deals with wiretap better. If the user doesn't want to compile wiretap, the wiretap is never visited. A few unnecessary #includes were removed from some wiretap files, and a CPP macro was moved from bpf.c to wtap.h. svn path=/trunk/; revision=229
1999-03-01Disables "Follow TCP Stream" if compiled with wiretap.Gilbert Ramirez1-7/+9
svn path=/trunk/; revision=199
1999-01-30Add Network Monitor and "iptrace" to the list of capture file formatsGuy Harris1-3/+4
"wiretap" can read. svn path=/trunk/; revision=180
1998-12-29* Installation documentation updatesGerald Combs1-84/+18
svn path=/trunk/; revision=141
1998-11-18Note that "wiretap" can now read Sun "snoop" files.Guy Harris1-8/+8
svn path=/trunk/; revision=107
1998-11-12I added the LANalzyer file format to wiretap. I cleaned up some code in theGilbert Ramirez1-0/+22
wiretap functions to be more generic and therefore allow an easier integration of more packet-capture file types. I also put in all the GPL copyrights in the wiretap code. svn path=/trunk/; revision=83
1998-09-25* Ethernet manufacturer support (Laurent)Gerald Combs1-0/+4
* PPP fixes (Gerald) * Null/loopback interface support (Gerald) svn path=/trunk/; revision=25
