Peter, Yes, tcpdump was very easy to use. Thanks very much for the reply.
Thanks to everyone else who replied too. I am going to try out ethereal too and post the results for the group. Since I already have tcpdump available to use, this was much quicker. I did download ethereal but did not try it out yet.

When I need to do this I normally use tcpdump, capture the network traffic to a file and then view it with less. As long as no other traffic goes out during the capture, you get just the conversation between client and server. The output can look messy, but the soap traffic is easily readable.
