More than one capture

[Stephan Knabe <sknabe () ifh de>]

Hello,
I was programming an application which does a kind of packet-accounting
using libpcap. But taking a look at the results I am getting, I see a few
strange things. Because the box runs in an large switched environment with
a lot of network-services, it might be that these results are really true.

So my question is:
Can I run a second application doing a capture on my linux-box or
will they concurrent in any way? So could I run my own
capturing-application AND tcpdump on the same system without loosing info or packets?

regards

Stephan Knabe
