PCAP persmission problems
I want to run a c++ program that use pcap as no root.
Because it isn't possible to run it as sudo.
I found this possible solution.
I executed the commands:
sudo chgrp pcap /usr/sbin/tcpdump
sudo chmod 750 /usr/sbin/tcpdump
This is my result:
-rwxr-x--- 1 root pcap 1138288 � 13 2017 /usr/sbin/tcpdump*
This command: getcap /usr/sbin/tcpdump
gives this as result:
/usr/sbin/tcpdump = cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw+ep
But I still get the error:
Could not open enp4s0 - enp4s0: You don't have permission to capture on that device (socket: Operation not permitted)
networking permissions libpcap
