I just tried this nice tutorial to get Wireshark to work without root:
http://packetlife.net/blog/2010/mar/19/sniffing-wireshark-non-root-user/#c24...
Unfortunately, as I say within the comments, it seems not to be working for
openSUSE (the tuto is based on Ubuntu).
% sudo zypper install libcap-progs
% sudo groupadd wireshark
% sudo usermod -G wireshark jc
% sudo chgrp wireshark /usr/bin/dumpcap
% sudo chmod 750 /usr/bin/dumpcap
% sudo setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin=eip /usr/bin/dumpcap
% getcap /usr/bin/dumpcap
/usr/bin/dumpcap = cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw+eip
% groups
users wireshark
%wireshark
[...]
dumpcap: There are no interfaces on which a capture can be done
Why not ? And why isn't Wireshark packaged this way ?
