Hello Guy,

Appreciate all the info that you have provided.

Although it probably doesn't look like it from my questions; I did actually read some tutorials prior to posting my 
initial question; and none made reference to the need for:
sudo setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin+eip {your program} 

So I'm wondering if you can suggest some reading that I should review to understand the basics of using libpcap.

Also, where can I find an overview of the key differences between version 1.5.3 and the current release?

Regards,
Vaughan
