I need a command line based packet sniffer. (I would use tethereal but this system has no graphical stuff.) ALl it needs to do is collect raw packets for analysis by ethereal on a different box.
Thank you, Lucky Leavell
http://packetstorm.linuxsecurity.com/defense/sniff/ I've used tcpdump and ettercap. Once I used ettercap on a customer's network to capture cross site packets in order to trace a fault, unfortunately, the vendor used a Windows program that didn't understand the packets, so I downloaded a trial version of the program they used that only worked for so many days, ran it under crossover office without problems - the price was steep for the full version, but the trial version did the job.
