If the browser is Linux-based, use tcpdump to capture all of the traffic between the browser and server and save it to a file. Run this in a separate CLI window on the browser machine as root: tcpdump -i any -vvv -w <save-file> host <name-of-server> Once you've captured all the traffic, copy <save-file> to a machine with a GUI and use wireshark-gtk to analyze the file: wireshark-gtk -r <save-file> Pretty standard fare. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Programmers often confuse Halloween and Christmas. - - After all, 31 Oct is the same as 25 Dec! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/5ETMECKPGSB3IEA4WDALCXZXWSQ7A5KU/
