I get this error when I start SEQ. Everything starts to run fine, I get the "Filtering packets on device xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, searching for EQ client", then I get this error message:

pcap_error:pcap_open_live(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx): bind: No such device

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Make sure the "Device" specified in the "[Network]" section of the config file or the "--net-interface=DEVICE" specified on the command line specified a valid network device and that it's the one you want to be listening for packets on.

I'm assuming those xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx you have there are an IP address, if that's what you specified for either of the above options it is incorrect, it is expecting something like eth0, eth1, or even ppp0. The IP address of the client you are looking for should be specified either by the "IP" option of the "[Network]" section of the config file or via the "--ip-address=<IP>" command line option.

Enjoy,
