Hi guys

I am trying to sniff the traffic on a remote Linux machine
The local machine is Windows 10 and the wireshark version is 2.9 (I also tried 2.6.6, latest obtained via Check for updates)

Here is what the debug file shows me when I use the sshdump interface

cmdline: C:\Program Files\Wireshark\extcap\sshdump.exe --capture --extcap-interface sshdump --fifo \\.\pipe\wireshark_extcap_sshdump_20190119121535 --remote-host 10.16.31.37 --remote-password XXXXXXXXXXX --debug true --remote-sudo true --remote-capture-command tcpdump -U -i ens160 -w- --debug-file debug.txt --remote-username minime --remote-interface ens160
Remote capture command has disabled other options
Running: tcpdump -U -i ens160 -w-


the firewall is inactive
using tcpdump at the remote end I can see wireshark trying to establish connection
using who shows me no user from my worskstation address..I think the session is not opening but I can't say what is wrong

thanks
MiniMe
