Hi,

We have 2 sniffer systems on NT and on Unix. The sniffer puts the ethernet
interfaces
on both the systems in promiscuous mode. Currently we are not worried about
any local
users on the system. Are there any threats from remote users on the
promiscuous interface,
on either system? When I say "remote users", I am talking about John Doe on
our network who
has no business with either of these system. John Doe could be on Internet
as well but has
no user accounts on these systems. Would he get any vulnerable information
from the sniffer
interfaces on either system?

Thank you in advance for any info.
