We have an AlphaServer 4/200 (sable) unit running OSF 3.0 with an EISA
ethernet card factory-installed at tu0.
We can't get tcpdump (the one shipped with that system's version of OSF/1)
to work on the ethernet interface, no matter what we do.
We built the kernel with the PACKETFILTER,
We did a MAKEDEV pfilt, etc,
We put the interface into promisc mode (#ifconfig tu0 promisc)
... and still it doesn't work:
# tcpdump
tcpdump: pfopen: tu0: No such device
tcpdump: your system may not be properly configured; see "man packetfilter"
#
Oh yeah ?:
# ifconfig tu0
tu0: flags=d63<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,PROMISC,MULTICAST,SIMPLEX>
inet 199.93.0.253 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 199.93.0.255 ipmtu 1500
#
# uname -a
OSF1 foo.bar.com V3.0 358.78 alpha
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance.
