[X-Unix] Capturing traffic on built-in ethernet interface question

[Eric F Crist]

Russell,

There are many applications that I've compiled directly from source.  
Ethereal is one of them.  Make sure you have Apple's Developer ToolKit 
installed, and the X11 implementation that Apple is distributing on its 
website (I find it works best for my purposes).  Go get the ethereal 
tarball and build it.  Everything *should* work OK after that.
