PCAP Timeout issue

[Tenzin Rigden <tenzin.rigden33 () gmail com>]

Hello,

I contacted you earlier about the PCAP timeout issue I was having. My issue
where I only get PCAP timeouts occurs even when I am still connected to to
Internet. I didn't realize there was a dev list, but I will contact you
through here from now on.

The timeout duration can be set by `pcap_set_timeout(pcap_t*, int)`
function.
It's unclear what the default value is, according to this
http://www.tcpdump.org/manpages/pcap_set_timeout.3pcap.html.

My program itself is actually written in Rust and I use this pcap library
https://github.com/ebfull/pcap, which interfaces between rust and C, so I
don't have a visual studio project for that to share.
One thing I failed to mention in my first email is that my issue seems to
be more frequent when I try to run my program as a windows service that
runs my program as a Process object in C sharp.

Regardless, I'm trying to recreate this by creating a small VS C++ project,
but I'm running into difficulty in just using building a basic program
using the headers.
I'm using the "PACKET DUMP" sample program from the WinPcap documentation
here, http://www.winpcap.org/docs/docs_412/html/group__wpcapsamps.html.

And I collected all my header files from your npcap repo,
https://github.com/nmap/npcap/tree/master/wpcap/libpcap/pcap.

I attempted to make a few edits to get it to compile (adding absolute paths
to the includes for header files, and adding a typedef uint u_int for all
of the u_*types*), but I still have a few errors I can't seem to figure
out. I also don't know where to find the "pcap-stdinc.h" file.

I have attached this VS project below.

Thank you for taking the time to look at this.
