Steps for enable live sniffer as a service on Windows

(tested on 8.1 64b, IP 192.168.88.247)

  • Instal windows wireshark including wincap driver
  • Locate winpcap file (c:\Program Files (x86)\WinPcap)
  • In winpcap folder we create config file for 'Remote Packet Capture' service (and set from which IP we will access this service)
rpcapd.exe -s rpcapd.ini -l 192.168.88.243
press CTRL+C and check existence of file rpcapd.ini
  • edit rpcapd.ini using any text editor and change value of option NullAuthPermit to YES and sve file afterwards
notepad rpcapd.ini
  • Start rpcapd service in services
Computer setting->services->remote packet capture->start
  • we should check that port 2002/tcp has been opened
  • now we determine windows device on which we want to capture packets
c:\Program Files (x86)\Wireshark>Tshark -D
