Dear Ethereal Development Team,
I recently upgraded from ethereal 0.9.13 to 0.10.8 and the interface I use
for capture is no longer listed in the dropdown list of interfaces. I think
it was listed in 0.9.13 (however I can no longer confirm that). I
specifically use a second ethernet interface that is _not_ bound to IP for
network capture purposes. When I manually type in the interface name (eth1)
it works fine.
Please let me know if you need any further info on this.
I've been using ethereal since about 2001, and I love it. Keep up the good
work.
Regards,
Glenn Talbott
