You don't have to use the z cpu cycles for wireshark: issue tcpdump into file in the zlinux machine copy the file to a linux desktop with opensuse for example run wireshark with that infile

[1], [2] PuTTY gives you ssh and X11-tunneling xming gives you X11 windows on your single-Window desktop. Window doesn't do named-pipes from the command-line [3], [4] However, [5] shows how to get around this That's the hard way though. The easier way is to get && install && start xming then get && install PuTTY "Default Settings" & Load left-side --> +SSH --> X11 [x] Enable X11 forwarding left-side --> Session (back to the top) "Default Settings" $ Save ;; now you've set X11 for all following sessions - better than ;; forgetting it & having to add it to each session load your new Default enter "[email protected]" into "Hostname", port 22, *SSH enter "[email protected]" into Saved Sessions ;; 999 is German for nein, nein, nein, aka no no no ;; change as neccessary hit "Save" hit "Open" at the session you now get, enter "xclock -update 1 &" You should see an xclock on your window (but it might just be hiding underneath one of the open applications on your desktop This is known to work on any "headless" [6] unix I've ever worked with. You might need to install your distribution's version of "xbase-clients" Caveat: I have to use this at one client's shop regularly, but I'm not uptodate on what the current "big-2" distributions are offering in the way of X11 libraries and toys these days.
