Networking on Linux host, other than Slirp?

Post by amadama »

PCEM v17 on linux,
Trying to bind to a tap interface but can only select SLIRP. Is TAP/pcap supported or is SLIRP the only Linux network option?
Thanks,

I started over from scratch and made sure I had the libpcap-dev libraries.
used these parameters during config:
./configure --enable-release-build --enable-alsa --enable-networking

Still only able to select SLIRP in the drop down of the GUI. What am I doing wrong? Is there another option for building with pcap?
SLIRP does work ok however. Hoping to get PCAP working as I want to do some IPX and Decnet stuff.
Thanks

Sorry, just looked at the code and PCAP is currently only supported in Windows builds.
