Thanks for using ethereal. However, I'm not the person that
ported it to HP-UX. The README.HPPD at
http://askdonna.ask.uni-karlsruhe.de/hppd/cgi-bin/wwwtar?/hpux/Gtk/ethereal-0.7.7/ethereal-0.7.7-ss-11.00.tar.gz+ethereal-0.7.7/README.HPPD+text

reports lavasani@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx as being the HP-UX porter.

The capture menu is not compiled into ethereal if HAVE_LIBPCAP
is not defined (see gtk/menu.c). Perhaps lavasani compiled
ethereal 0.7.7 without libpcap support, in which case the binary
lets you read trace files of many formats, but doesn't let you
capture packets.

I'm copying this to lavasani, and to ethereal-users.
