Libpcap in Ubuntu

You can begin by downloading and installing a new Ubuntu VM. Follow my older post for instructions regarding the installation http://zaidmunir.blogspot.com/2010/06/ubuntu-installation-on-virtual-box.html.
Once you are done installing you will need to download and install the libpcap development libraries. In case you need to find them your self, you can use the command to list possible matches:

aptitude search libpcap

You need to install the libpcap-dev package, for this use the command:

sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev
