Xircom CardBus PCMCIA Network Adapter



 Has anyone else had problems with the CardBus Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56
adapter and promiscuous mode?  I've been trying to run TCPDUMP with my Dell
laptop, which has this network card, and I can't figure out how to get into
promiscuous mode.   According to the tcpdump man page, tcpdump -p will not put
the adapter into promiscuous mode, but I need to see ALL the packets on the
wire.

I've looked at Xircom's website, but no luck there.  The tcpdump command
line looks like this:  tcpdump -v -x -i eth0.  I'm running RH 6.1

Any ideas on how I can get this to work properly?

Thanks
Chuck
