Hi List, I started a tcpdump session and ran the ifconfig command to see if it returns the string "PROMISC" in the command's output. There's nothing there showing me this mode of operation. I know that tcpdump puts the interface to promiscuos mode (by default) and I am almost sure that the tcpdump was not hacked (this is a very fresh installation). Is there a problem with ifconfig from the SuSE distro ? Which are the other ways ? I will be glad for any kind of information Oswaldo Castro
