Netmon returns permissions error when I try to start a capture
Netmon returns permissions error when I try to start a capture
- Hi there,
I have encountered an issue with Netmon 3.2 where the system program an error if I try to start a capture.
>>None of the network adapters are bound to the netmon driver
>>You may not have the rights to capture on this machine. Your account must be in the Administrators group to capture.
- I'm using WinXP.
- I've checked that my account has administrator privilages. It does.
- Netmon did not create a Netmon Users group on my system. I have created on manually and added myself, however this does not seem to have changed anything.
- I have also logged in as the system admin and tried to initiate a capture, I end up with the same issue.
Please help me troubleshoot this issue!
Many thanks,
Richard

- I sounds like either the capture driver is not installed or the Network Interface doesn't not have the driver bound to it in the adapter properties.
With Windows XP and Windows 2003 the driver is part of the OS. So it's possible the driver isn't present or something else is preventing if from binding to the NIC.
To check that the driver is installed, run "net start nm" from a command line. It should say "The requested service has already been started". If it is not installed, you'll have to install the component into the OS. This is unlikely because this is a default, but it's possible it was turned off by your admin or with the install you used.
To check the binding, go to the adapter properties and verify you see the Network Monitor Driver and it's checked box is checked. If it does not even show up, you can try to add the driver manually by hitting the Install button.

As the users of Panasonic HDC-DX3,we will have problems to make our mts files to youtube.com.Now I find the MTS Video Converter to convert mts files to FLV. Then we can share our videos with our friends on youtube.com. More powerful HD Video Converter and Rip Blu Ray
