Hey, I wrote a few articles about this. You can ignore the first section and skip to the section that explains the different tools to use. http://www.linuxsecurity.com/feature_stories/dsniff/t1.html Darkstat is another good program...and ntop is quite stable now and doesn't use a lot of CPU like the earlier versions. Be sure to read the docs so that you start and stop the daemon with the option to save the previous sessions data. This goes for darkstat and ntop. darkstat http://members.optushome.com.au/emikulic/net/darkstat/ ntop: http://www.ntop.org This program doesn't save data yet, but the developers mentioned it would in upcoming releases but it is quite helpful. http://www.objectplanet.com/Probe/ On Fri, 8 Nov 2002, S.
