It's the first time I'm installing and configuring Wireshark in a rpm-based distro. In the past I've installed it properly on Ubuntu, Mint or Debian.Don't know why, but it seems I cannot run it as standard user. I've done the process of creating the wireshark group and adding the user to that group and then change the group of dumpcap to wireshark, but no way, it doesn't work.In .deb systems I haven't had any problem following such steps, so don't know what could be missing.Thoughts?
Can't get Wireshark to run as user on CentOS
permissions;wireshark
The procedure to run Wireshark as non-root user in CentOS is the same as in other distros.However, in CentOS when running Wireshark, it keeps prompting for either input the root password or run unprivileged, whereas in other distros (at least the distros said above) it opens directly.The mistake was my wrong assumption that it wasn't working because it didn't opened directly, but after perform the steps I said in the body of the question (http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/CapturePrivileges) it does work clicking on running as unprivileged user.
