I cannot obtain the list of network interfaces or cannot capture any packets. Why?

From Jpcap FAQ page

It may be because you don't have administrative privileges, which are required to run Jpcap-based applications.

• On Windows 2000/XP, your account should be in the Administrator group.

• On Windows Vista, even if your account is in the administrator group, you still need to use "run as administrator" option. To use the option, right-click the application icon, and choose "run as administrator". If your application is command-line based, you need to open Command Prompt by using "run as administrator" option, and run your application within that Command Prompt.

• On Linux/UNIX, you need to become a super user by using 'su' command , or use 'sudo' command to run Jpcap-based applications.
