In ports is Ethereal which runs in X and does a pretty good job. Probably has enough functionality to tell you whatever it is you are trying to find out - which is hopefully how people are able to sniff across a switched network in the first place... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Eric Stanfield, K2Access Keno Kozie Associates 222 N LaSalle #1500 Chicago, IL 60606 (312) 332-3000 John Angelmo To: isp@freebsd.org Sent by: cc: owner-freebsd-isp@F Subject: Sniffer reeBSD.ORG 04/17/2002 09:12 AM Hello I have a small problem. Some hosts at a campus are portsniffing or checking for unpatched windows boxes. I can place my little freebsd laptop on the switch and sniff. Are there any good tools for sniffing and getting OK reports, if they are in ports, that would be perfect. Free tools are OK to start with, I don't have more money to spend then $50-$200 on a sniffer. /John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
