Summary	0006604: ettercap 0.8.3 crashes with segmentation fault, if the option "redir_command_on" is active in the config-file
Description	Hello, the main trouble for the user occurs, if he uses the grafical interface. After clicking the "Accept" buttom, ettercap ends without any comment. In the text-mode the situation shows itself in the following manner: ettercap --iface eth0 -T ettercap 0.8.3 copyright 2001-2019 Ettercap Development Team Listening on: eth0 -> my mac address my ip ipv4/255.255.255.128 my ip ipv6/64 set_redir_commands(): cannot remove the redirect, did you uncomment the redir_command_off command on your etter.conf file? set_redir_commands(): cannot setup the redirect for IPv6, did you uncomment the redir6_command_on command on your etter.conf file? Ooops ! This shouldn't happen... Segmentation Fault... Please recompile in debug mode, reproduce the bug and send a bugreport Have a nice day! Here the user sees the helpful message for uncommending the option "redir_command_off" in the config-file. The problem is solved, if the user comment the option "redir_command_on" in the config-file. Someone, who only uses the grfaical interface, can never react on the problem Bye Rose
