Does anyone have a favorite network utility/packet sniffer? I'm looking
at sniffit from the Debian package, but not all that happy with it.
Ethereal but only on packets that transit through an ethernet card ( doesn't work on the loopback or on serial ppp )
neither does sniffit...
trying to run some tests internally before going out on the Internet or a
LAN
How about snoop ?
I haven't been paying attention to this thread, but I seem to recall that it is not possible for a machine to fully sniff itself. If you are having technical problems with the tools you are trying, you might try snooping from an independent 3rd machine that is only listening to the net and not participating in the conversation. But, that may not work well either if you are plugged into a switch and not a hub ... depending on the nature of your network traffic.
