argus-3.0.3.11 on the developers server

Hi all,
I've tried running this on RHEL5 x86 and x86_64 systems with Endace DAG
cards, with libpcap 1.0.0 and 1.1.1 compiled against the DAG drivers.
Argus 3.0.3.11 appears to exit silently when trying to capture from a
DAG card. Argus 3.0.2 does not do this.

The debug output follows this message. If there are other diagnostic
materials that would be useful, please let me know.

Thanks,
Guy
