We downloaded the Ethereal software from the Ethereal.org web site in the
Solaris area;  the current 0.99 release for Sun OS 2.9.  

Can you tell me if any of the binary packages in the ALL-VERSIONS
subdirectory of the Solaris area would be compilied with a suitable release
(8.1+) for ATM?

Thanks

You're not using libpcap 0.9.3, you're using libpcap 0.7.2, unless it was
dynamically linked with libpcap...

    [list that doesn't mention libpcap.so.{anything}

...and it's not.

Libpcap 0.7.2 doesn't support capturing on SunATM devices; I think that
was first available in 0.8.1.

You'll have to get a version of Ethereal that's either statically linked
with a newer version of libpcap, or a version of Ethereal dynamically
linked with libpcap and a dynamic-library version of 0.8.1 or later, or
you'll have to build Ethereal from source.

You might try The Written Word (www.thewrittenword.com) for binary
packages, or try one of the binary packages from the Ethereal Web site:

    http://www.ethereal.com/distribution/solaris/

(Gerald, are those statically linked with libpcap?  If so, with what
version are they linked?)
