I'm not quite sure if I understand what you're asking, but if you want to see what traffic is going into/out of/through them, tcpdump is a good command-line based packet sniffer and ethereal is it's gui cousin. You can even use tcpdump to capture data and later view it on a different computer with ethereal. iptraf will show you general usage of the traffic crossing your router. If your asking to see what path the traffic is taking from point A to point B, then traceroute is your best friend. > > Please help > > Thank you again > > --- "Loren M.
