For example, I sometimes see slow response times on file sharing. Can anyone suggest a set of tools on FreeBSD (preferably in the ports, but I can use make if I have to) to look for problems like extra protocols, ethernet collisions, bandwidth utilization, etc.? At worse, I'm going to spend $1500 on EtherPeek and run it on an iBook. I just think that there is probably something more useful and/or less expensive on FreeBSD. Thanks in advance, Jaime
