Thanks Theo,
Basically ... I don't think enabling the BPF (Berkley Packet Filter) in the
kernel is going to be an option, due= to the potential security risk .. is
there any other way of enabling this .. or will I have to put my hands up
and not use Wackamole (sniff) .. ?
Your replies are much appreciated.
David

wackamole will open the /dev/bpf### device. I am not sure if that
kernel option is required to use the device node, but if it is, then
yes it is required for Wackamole to run.
