Free AirPcap Adapters at Sharkfest

Although I haven't decided whether I will be able to attend, I wanted to let you know about Sharkfest. Sharkfest is all about WireShark(r) and it is put on by people who make WinPcap. We use WinPcap in NetScanTools Pro. WinPcap is a packet driver (http://www.wireshark.org/). Wireshark uses it to capture packets and we use it to both capture and generate packets. Wireshark is the best free network packet analysis tool I know of. The packet capture files that NetScanTools Pro saves can be opened by Wireshark for in-depth analysis.

Here are the details about the conference:

Wireshark(r) Developer and User Conference
June 15 - 18, 2009
Stanford University Palo Alto, California

SHARKFEST is an educational event that offers in-depth instruction over the course of 3 days to the benefit of anyone wishing to enhance their skill set with, and optimize the effective use of, the world's most popular network and packet analyzer, Wireshark.

Space is limited and due to a full house last year, early registration is strongly encouraged. Single registration for all 3 days is $695.00 USD. Details including conference hotels, group discounts and the conferenceschedule can be found at http://www.cacetech.com/sharkfest.09/. Every paid registration will receive a FREE AirPcap Classic Adapter (SRP $198USD) and so much more!
