Hello Mike,

Thanks for the response.

The GUI I was referring to was the SIPp GUI front end, I should have
been clearer.

I am aware that the issue is the lack of root privileges and as I
mentioned using the CLI I can happily run the scenario.

I have tried firing up Firefox from an xterm and I can see its running
as root as the Firefox shortcuts change. However when I run the test, at
the point after the 200OK when the .pcap file is attempted the scenario
fails with error "Can't create raw socket (need to run as root?)." Just
to clarify its fine not using the SIPp GUI.

Therefore my question is probably can anyone tell me which process is
being called at this point? The laptop will only be used for SIP testing
and in closed lab environments so I could potentially just chmod 777 the
offending directory / file.

Thanks

Jimmy

        Seems to me like your computer already told you what to do..?

        I've had bad experiences with Gnome/KDE based su.  Try `sudo
firefox` from an xterm.  You may need to close your existing firefoxen
to do this.


        HTH,

Mike
