Hi,

First of all this isn't a 'Wireshark product' you're referring to, but a derivative. You may ask the TCLSim people. 

From what I see the problem could be that you don't run the program with enough privileges to open the interfaces to capture on. 

Try running as root. Even better, have the TCLSim people go with a newer Wireshark release and use privilege separation, which is a safer solution. 

Thanks,
Jaap

The version of Wireshark Used is 0.99.7. Please let me know the reason for getting this error and changes in Wireshark settings required.

Thanks & Best Regards,
Vinay
