Libpcap version aix0.8 i already downloaded the new version of tcpdump-3.9.8.tar.gz from www.tcpdump.com even install and readme files didn't explain how to install the new version.
NOTE: These packages are built for AIX 5.1 and higher. AIX 4.3.3 users are encouraged to update to AIX 5.1 or 5.2. Future Toolbox package updates will be built on AIX 5.1. No further Toolbox images will be built for AIX 4.3.3. (There are no plans to remove existing 4.3.3 rpm images from the FTP site anytime in the near future, however.) - New versions of tcpdump and libpcap are available: These updates are in response to CERT 'denial-of-service' reports for tcpdump: The first of which is resolved by the update to 3.8.1, and the other two of which are minor patches added to 3.8.1 (and are included in this new Toolbox image).
Actually, because tcpdump links statically with libpcap at build time, you do not need libpcap if you only want tcpdump. Descriptions: Tcpdump is a network analysis tool. Libpcap is a library for packet capture and playback. It is used by several other network analysis tools such as tcpdump and ethereal. Libpcap requires the installation of the bos.net.tcp.server fileset on AIX.
