On Win32, if the attempt to open the capture device fails, don't talk
about checking permissions, as the capture devices are probably
available to all users, and talking about permissions will only confuse
the user. Do, however, warn that Ethereal can't capture on Token Ring
or PPP/WAN interfaces.
On UNIX, if the attempt to open the capture device fails, and the error
message starts with "can't find PPA for ", they are probably running on
HP-UX with a version of libpcap not patched to properly look up PPAs for
network interfaces given the interface name; give them a detailed
warning about this, telling them that they'll have to fix libpcap and
build Ethereal from source, and pointing them at the "README.hpux" file.
