Kevin,
After reading your message again, I realized I didn't give you a complete
answer before…
You can build the fwknop client under cygwin. libpcap is only required by the
fwknop server. If you want to build the client only, you need to tell
configure not to try to build the server by passing "--disable-server" to the
configure script. With that option, configure will not try to build the server
and will not look for libpcap. For more information on available options to
configure, run: "./configure --help"
Regards,
-Damien
