Help with tcpdump to capture traffic.

Is is possible to create a sudo command for tcpdump?

What problems are you having? It works for me as long as I use the full path, e.g.
Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/tcpdump -i eth0

Sorry, I thought it may have been against TOS to post that question.

OIC. Well, it was indeed borderline at the very least IIRC.

I'm gonna report this thread for closure. Thanks for your concern regarding the LQ TOS.
