Before posting this, I searched the forum and found a similiar thread with the same problem and read the replys to it but my syntax is correct.. maybe its the way my network is setup, let me explain..

I have 16 Internet Ips (not local like 192.168 or 10.x), but actual internet ips.. and thats what my network is ran off of.. so.. for examples, lets have my network ips range from 12.12.12.80 to 96. My network ips are 80 & 96, and my router is 81.. my "eq" box is 83 and my "seq" box is 82. So, the syntax I used is:

./showeq -i eth0 -ip-address=12.12.12.83

I get this error:
unable to open file: /usr/local/share/showeq/seqdef.xml
/usr/local/share/showeq/showeq.xml
Listening for first client seen.
Initializing Packet Capture Thread:
Filtering Packets on device p-address=12.12.12.83, Searching for EQ Client...
pcap_error:pcap_open_live(p-address=12.12.12.83): Bind: No Such device
Segmentation fault

I tried many different syntax's and rebooted and everything.. heres how myn etwork is setup:

DSL line -> Cisco 678 Router -> Netgear 24port Switch. The cisco has the ip range for my internet ips and dhcp's them. Please help. =) Thanks

the correct command line option is --ip-address=1.1.1.1 , note that it is two dashes.


Now if you dislike command line options, simply start showeq with none and set the interface and IP address in the Network Menu. Then save your preferences and now you are good to go.

Also looks like you never did a make install, its a good idea.

try --ip-address (2 dashes at start) instead of a single dash.

or showeq --help for more clarification.


pcap_errorcap_open_live(p-address=12.12.12.83): Bind: No Such device

not real surprising it couldnt bind the the address "p-address=12.12.12.83"

sounds like you are also going to have problems with using a switch. RTFM/F :)
