Re: Capturing Packets -- Ethereal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



The thing to do is to install wireshark on the system without X.

Then from a machine with X:
ssh -Xf user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wireshark

This may be off topic, but I think my ethereal question might be simple enough.

I am presently compiling ethereal on a CentOS platform to check it out.

But the packets I want to monitor are actually on a different CentOS platform, and I'd rather not install Ethereal on it, if for no other reason I don't have X-Windows installed on that platform.

My question is, can I monitor/write packets to a file on the more remote machine, and then analyze the packets on another machine using my ethereal SW?

Can I sniff the packets on the remote w/o a full install of ethereal?
