Yes. You would install libpcap if the server is
running linux; winpcap for a windows server.

HTH:
in your email you stated I shall need to install libpcap or winpcap on
the server (depending on
OS). depending on OS, are
you referring to the OS that is running in the
server.
Thanks,
to do a remote capture, you will need to install
libpcap or winpcap on the server (depending on
OS). then run rpcapd on the server. after that, you should be
able to connect to the server from the wireshark gui, by selecting "remote"
rather than "local". Then you can select the remote interface,
just as if it were local to
you.

support list for Wireshark Subject: Re: [Wireshark-users] Welcome to
the "Wireshark-users" mailing list
Yes, it makes sense. I'll continue to explore
this option and will update you later on my findings.
first let me say , i am only getting started with
wireshark.
i am not familiar with the remote server
capture.
what i cn say is that wireshark can capture all it can see.
permit me to illustrate by example.
my workstation is where i run
wireshark from is on a switch with 30-40 other clients. on the lan
segment from the switch to me, to my eth0 interface normally sees only my
local traffic.
but lets say i want to monitor one(or more) of the
other switch clients.
i can go to my switch and assign my port as the
monitor port. that means that all other switch client traffic is also
copied to my monitor port. if i can see it, i can capture
it.
now i can fire up wireshark and see what transpires to/from any
of the other switch clients.
naturally your topology will differ, but
i just wanted to point out it is possible to capture remote client
traffic if you take the right approach.
make
sense?

The two remote server which I am trying to run
wireshark capture are APP server and DB server, but the capture does not
work with remote select feature.
Thanks,
what do
you mean by remotely? if you are on a switch for example, your interface
sees only your traffic.

I have a problem. I installed wire shark client in my lattop
successfully. After doing so, I was able to capture data locally on my
machine, but when I tried to capture remotely, I was not able to do so.
Please assist.
