"Ok I tried to get wireshark working with OP25 today using the following
command and received the errors below. Any help would be appreciated if I
am missing something.

bob at ubuntu:~/src/op25/python$ wireshark
dumpcap: There are no interfaces on which a capture can be done
dumpcap: There are no interfaces on which a capture can be done
dumpcap: There are no interfaces on which a capture can be done
dumpcap: There are no interfaces on which a capture can be done"

You need to run wireshark with superuser privileges. This can be done by
prefixing the command with "sudo" and typing in your password when asked.
So you need to run:

sudo wireshark

and that should let you capture on the available interfaces.
