I'm getting an error when running the following command:
sudo setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin=eip /usr/bin/tcpdump*
Which provides the following error:
Failed to set capabilities on file `/usr/bin/tcpdump' (Invalid argument) The value of the capability argument is not permitted for a file. Or the file is not a regular (non-symlink) file
As of yet I haven't been able to find any solutions - and would be extremely grateful to anyone who could offer or help me find one.
The base Debian package for tcpdump, as does the Ubuntu one, shows the executable actually resides in /usr/sbin/tcpdump, and not /usr/bin/tcpdump.
