When using Firesheep on MacOSX you get:
“Couldn’t get netmask for device en1: en1: no IPv4 address assigned.”
Open up terminal and type “ifconfig” to see if your ethernet cart is indeed on en1. My Mac Air has the wireless card as en0, not en1.
Go to the url “about:config” in Firefox. This opens up extra configuration options for Firefox. Search for ‘firesheep’ and there will be an option to change the Firesheep interface.

Still getting errors what can it be using MacBook Pro.

I typed ifconfig in and got the list, but it gave me en0, en1, en7, en4, en5 in that order, with a bunch of info under each, so which one is the right one to use?

Perfect. Got Firesheep working in 5 seconds on my MBA.
