Ditto... I've not yet found something that ethereal can't do for me -
apart from high-speed packet capture - but that's a kernel issue and is
being dealt with (a bit.)
Perhaps some tcpdump with some perl scripting attached (as appropriate?)
If it's high-speed networking and missing packets is your problem,
there are some resources on the net as to how you can tune your kernel
to optimise throughput and capture percentages. Had a good paper on it
but can't seem to find it on my desk at the moment - sorry. Google will
undoubtedly help.
Best regards,
