Personally, from the above output, I think that would be quite easy, but not entirely correct because I reckon you'll have to ignore the source ports, or at least have some match going on, to determine that if your start and end source ports are close enough, then they are part of the same connection, if everything else (src, dst IP && dst port) are the same. [*] [*] -- This of course also depends on the fact that you don't have any kernel patches (grsecurity comes to mind) which performs automatic randomization of the source port (ala OpenBSD).
