Rich's untimely death occurred before the planned Volume III, which was to cover the applications section of the 1st edition. I've toyed with the idea of starting an outline for this book, but have so far just been relaxing from producing the 3rd edition =)

The distributions from sourceforge are safe. See
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/tcpdump/ http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/libpcap/
The MD5s of safe versions that HLUG provided appear to be correct; my own MD5 says:
MD5 (tcpdump-3.7.1.tar.gz) = 03e5eac68c65b7e6ce8da03b0b0b225e
MD5 (libpcap-0.7.1.tar.gz) = 0597c23e3496a5c108097b2a0f1bd0c7
I moved the binaries on the tcpdump.org web site, so that the "download" links won't work.
"ls -c" says that the modified binaries were installed at Nov 11 10:14:00 2002 GMT.
Preliminary inspection says that the CVS repository is O.K.
