What is the "correct" version of libpcap for Linux out there?
I've seen one at: http://www.inner.net/pub/ipv6/ (by Craig Metz)
and one at: http://tango.netpedia.net/ (by Alexey Kuznetsov).

Is libpcap being actively maintained at ftp://ftp.ee.lbl.gov/ anymore?
I read somewhere that Van Jacobson left that place and is now
at Cisco.
