Umm.. SawMill (http://www.sawmill.net) is a log analyzer. In case this isn't clear, syslog logs, Event logs and such. Ethereal is a packet analyzer and network sniffer. It doesn't produce logs. It makes network capture files. NAI Sniffer does some nice analysis (you will have to save that data in Sniffer's format, which is in Ethereal I believe). NetMon (URL unknown) might do more than ethereal, but I remember them being pretty much identical in basic functionality (IOW they are both packet analyzers). Snort (http://www.snort.org) might be useful, but it is an intrusion detection software, not a network statistics software. I know only of Linux/Unix apps really. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- __o Bradley Arlt Security Team Lead _ \<_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] University Of Calgary (_)/(_) I should be biking right now.
