OK, I've got tcpdump_3.3.1a2-1.deb. I've made it suid-root, and I get:
% tcpdump
tcpdump: linux socket: Socket type not supported
Can some expert out there tell me what I'm supposed to do to get
tcpdump working?
I think older versions of tcpdump (well libpcap actually) use a depreciated
mechanism for raw packets. I think Craig Metz has a fixed libpcap on inner.
Are you building you kernel with `Packet Socket' support? Or if its a module
can try `modprobe af_packet' or add 'alias net-pf-17 af_packet' to
/etc/conf.modules before starting tcpdump.
