Re: Best sniffer?
I've found best results with iptraf and a Linksys LNE100 (mod 4). The NIC
has a profound effect on the quality of promiscuous mode and may vary
by individual card. Ethereal (sp) is good and provides a lot of
information, but I have an aversion to throwing X into the picture when
running a packet sniffer because it's using system resources that could be
processing packets...

You have paid nothing for the preceding, therefore it's worth every penny
you've paid for it: if you did pay for it, might I remind you of the
immortal words of Phineas Taylor Barnum regarding fools and money?
