Hi,
I am using libpcap 0.6 on Linux to capture packets from the interface.
In my application I am using pcap_setfilter to modify the filter for capturing packets from the interface. But after filter has been modified the libpcap retains the packets that libpcap had got using the old filter (ie before pcap_setfilter is called)
This filtering is done using a socket. So in pcap_setfilter is there any way we can "dump" all the 'unread' packets captured using the old filter which are present in the socket's buffer ?
thanks a lot Ashley
