network devices. Note the distinction between "network device", where a
device driver file exists in /dev, and "interface", which is a namespace
private to the kernel (not on the filesystem). You have to supply the
-full pathname of the device to Ethereal (i.e., "/dev/vmnetN").
+full pathname of the device to Wireshark (i.e., "/dev/vmnetN").
When vmnet1 is up, you will be able to select it from the list of
interfaces, since it will have both a device name (/dev/vmnet1) and
an interface name "vmnet1"
