please reply this. Thank you

So install the missing libraries:

Do you have libpcap installed? See if you have a file named `libpcap.so' - it should be in /usr/lib/. If you don't, you need to use your package manager to install it - I *think* you'll just need the normal library, not the development library.

libpcap.so is present in /usr/lib but it still gives the error
it seems me that it cannot find where's libpcap.so is?

Or is there something to do with pcp_sendpacket?

I've already set the variables correctly in /etc/profile as required


please help ..

Which distro are you using? I think one of them doesn't include /usr/lib in the default ld-linux search path.

I don't know if this'll help, but to make sure that's not the problem, you can:

and then run your program - if that makes the error go away, add /usr/lib to your /etc/ld.so.conf file.

it still gives the error
i added libjpcap.so to
/usr/lib
/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_16/jre/lib/i386/libjpcap.so
/usr/java/packages/lib/ext

error detects LD_LIBRARY_PATH which i set to
/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_16/jre/lib/i386/libjpcap.so

question is it doesn't know about pcp_sendpacket

" undefined symbol: pcap_sendpacket "

since lipcap 0.8.3 version doesn't support send packet option i've downloaded libpcap 0.9.7
and did
./configure
make
make install

but it didn't replace /usr/lib following files

libpcap.a
libpcap.so.0
libpcap.so.0.8
libpcap.so.0.8.3

which is of old libpcap version may be that's why libjpcap.so is giving errors
thanx for your help...
but im still stuck ...
