Hardware and OS requirements for ethereal?

Q 1.11: Does Ethereal work on Windows XP?

A: Yes, but if you want to capture packets, you will need to install the latest version of WinPcap, as 2.2 and earlier versions of WinPcap didn't support Windows XP.

For Red Hat their is an RPM. I wouldn't know the dependancies off hand. try it and find out. As far as hardware........um, a network interface. Typically an ethernet card.
 
depends. For Redhat, I would capture in tcpdump and then open offline (ethereal is a huge security hole, and not always stable). For opening large captures/applying filters to large captures, it's all about the memory. I have 2 GB, and still have 20 minute filtering times...of course, that's a 2-5GB capture file (sometimes larger)...
