Wireshark is pronounced as the word wire followed immediately by the word shark. Exact pronunciation and emphasis may vary depending on your locale (e.g. Arkansas). It's spelled with a capital W, followed by a lower-case ireshark. It is not a CamelCase word, i.e., WireShark is incorrect.

Wireshark® is the world's most popular network protocol analyzer. It has a rich and powerful feature set and runs on most computing platforms including Windows, OS X, Linux, and UNIX. Network professionals, security experts, developers, and educators around the world use it regularly. It is freely available as open source, and is released under the GNU General Public License version 2.

In May of 2006, Gerald Combs (the original author of Ethereal) went to work for CACE Technologies (best known for WinPcap). Unfortunately, he had to leave the Ethereal trademarks behind. This left the project in an awkward position. The only reasonable way to ensure the continued success of the project was to change the name. This is how Wireshark was born. Wireshark is almost (but not quite) a fork.

Yes, if, for example, you mean "I work for a commercial organization; can I use Wireshark to capture and analyze network traffic in our company's networks or in our customer's networks?"

As noted, Wireshark is licensed under the GNU General Public License. The GPL imposes conditions on your use of GPL'ed code in your own products; you cannot, for example, make a "derived work" from Wireshark, by making modifications to it, and then sell the resulting derived work and not allow recipients to give away the resulting work.

We usually pronounce the two letters in English. Although you're free of course free to pronounce it in any other language. But we don't recommend trying to pronouncing it as an actual word, as people will think you're telling them to quiet down.

Wireshark can read live data from Ethernet, Token-Ring, FDDI, serial (PPP and SLIP) (if the OS on which it's running allows Wireshark to do so), 802.11 wireless LAN (if the OS on which it's running allows Wireshark to do so), ATM connections (if the OS on which it's running allows Wireshark to do so), and the "any" device supported on Linux by recent versions of libpcap.

Wireshark can only capture on devices supported by libpcap/WinPcap. On most OSes, only devices that can act as network interfaces of the type that support IP are supported as capture devices for libpcap/WinPcap, although the device doesn't necessarily have to be running as an IP interface in order to support traffic capture. On Linux and FreeBSD, libpcap 0.

The most likely reason for this is that Wireshark is trying to look up an IP address in the capture to convert it to a name (so that, for example, it can display the name in the source address or destination address columns), and that lookup process is taking a very long time. Wireshark calls a routine in the OS of the machine on which it's running to convert of IP addresses to the corresponding names. That routine probably does one or more of: on Windows systems, a NetBIOS-over-TCP query.

According to Webster's "Marshmallow" is the only acceptable spelling. "Marshmellow"{sic} appears to be a frequent misspelling. Webster's lists the "..mellow" pronunciation as preferred, with the "..mallow" pronunciation as acceptable. One reader notes it's like trying to convince some people there is no "P" in "hamster". "You can rub it in their face and they still won't admit they're wrong."

Support for particular protocols is added to Wireshark as a result of people contributing that support; no formal plans for adding support for particular protocols in particular future releases exist. If a network analyzer writes out files in a format already supported by Wireshark (e.g., in libpcap format), Wireshark may already be able to read them, unless the analyzer has added its own proprietary extensions to that format.

Some versions of the GTK+ library from www.sunfreeware.org appear to be buggy, causing Wireshark to drop core with a Bus Error. Un-install those packages, and try getting the 1.2.10 version from that site, or the version from The Written Word, or the version from Sun's GNOME distribution, or the version from the supplemental software CD that comes with the Solaris media kit, or build it from source from the GTK Web site. Update the GLib library to the 1.2.

Wireshark can only be linked with version 4.2.2 or later of UCD SNMP. Your version of Wireshark was dynamically linked with such a version of UCD SNMP; however, you have an older version of UCD SNMP installed, which means that when Wireshark is run, it tries to link to the older version, and fails. You will have to replace that version of UCD SNMP with version 4.2.2 or a later version.

When an application is installed on OS X, prior to 10.4, it is usually "prebound" to speed up launching the application. (That's what the "Optimizing" phase of installation is.) Fink normally performs prebinding automatically when you install a package.

A lot should be written as two words. Although a lot is used informally to mean "a large number" or "many," avoid using a lot in formal writing. Example: "The crook had many (not a lot of) chances to rob the stranger." According to The Oxford Dictionary of American Usage and Style, "The indefinite article a is used before words beginning with a consonant sound, including /y/ and /w/ sounds. The other form, an, is used before words beginning with a vowel sound.

The ISLRBC has 10 members, five from each country. Current membership can be found on the Board's website at www.islrbc.org. Members are appointed by the IJC and serve in their personal and professional capacities rather than as representatives of their countries or organizations.

Why isn't full-screen mode "full screen"? The only thing I get is an original sized output with a full-screen border.

Hi WWM Crew, my wrasse's caudal peduncle seems to have faded on both sides and lost it's pink coloration normal of a Lubbock's fairy wrasse. The spot is not white (typical of a parasite infection), but clear, and looks like it has lost pigment. There is also a place on the pale patch where it looks raised in places, almost like the skin has peeled up. lt;Hmmm... do look at pictures of fishes in the archives and beyond with "dropsy" like symptoms (bacterial)... a possibility here.

The Finance Reports task force is currently taking this request into consideration. Please note that a change in how equipment is capitalized, and new expenditure types will be introduced in early September 2003. We will wait until those changes are complete before addressing this issue.

The Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh provides a well-documented explanation of the Pittsburgh spelling online. Please visit their How to Spell Pittsburgh page to learn more about why we spell Pittsburgh the way we do.

The word was invented by Donald Watson in the 1940's. It is pronounced "vee-gun". This is the most common pronunciation in the UK today. No one can say this pronunciation in "wrong", so this is also the politically correct pronunciation. In the US, common pronunciations are "vee-jan" and "vay-gn" in addition to "vee-gn", though the American Vegan Society says the correct pronunciation is as per the UK.

The opinions in this regard are not univocal.
