wireshark

I did a "yum -y install wireshark" and it was successful.

After the is type "wireshark" and nothing.

Is there a problem with this package or am I missing something.

wireshark binary is located in /usr/sbin . My guess is that you are
probably trying to run it as a user other than root and /usr/sbin is not
in your PATH.

In fact, maybe you wanted the graphical interface (which has a 'wireshark' binary)...
yum install wireshark-gnome

And, you probably also want wireshark-gnome.
