Hi All,
I want to write a dissector in Wireshark under CentOS using Lua, what are the steps to get this to work? Installed Wireshark via yum cannot run configure to enable lua pugin. Please provide detailed steps. 

When you run "wireshark -v" does it say "without Lua" or "with Lua"?
If it says "without Lua" then the version provided by CentOS does not come with LUA built in so you'll need to build your own Wireshark (there are instructions on the web site and/or Wiki).
